Polyoxyethylene Nonylphenol (NP-9)

Polyoxyethylene Nonylphenol (NP-9) is a nonionic surfactant composed of a nonylphenol hydrophobic group linked to polyethylene oxide chains. This structure gives it excellent emulsifying, wetting, and dispersing properties. It is frequently used in industrial formulations such as cleaning agents, paints, and adhesives to improve product stability and performance. Handling requires care to avoid prolonged skin contact and respiratory exposure. Finstar Chemicals supplies this surfactant in 25L containers to industrial clients, particularly serving the East African region. Its liquid form and packaging facilitate easy dosing and storage when kept in a cool, dry environment away from incompatible substances. It enables optimized formulation efficiency by enhancing ingredient solubility and product homogeneity. Procurement teams benefit from reliable supply chains and batch verification documentation commonly required for quality control. This chemical should be stored in sealed containers to avoid contamination and degradation, especially in areas with high ambient temperatures.
