Narrow range ethoxylates

NR ethoxylates (CAS Number: 68131-39-5) are nonionic surfactants with a peaked ethoxymer distribution around the target level of ethoxylation. Narrow range ethoxylates offer lower free alcohol, predictable cloud point, and consistent performance compared with broad-range homologues—valued in detergents, cleaners, and institutional formulations.

Safer Choice and sustainability

Selected surfactants in this family have received EPA Safer Choice approval and Full Green Circle listing. Approvals and listings are published at www.cleangredients.org under the Harcros Chemicals Inc. company page. NR ethoxylates are readily biodegradable and support eco-label detergent positioning.

T-Det A 26-Series NR technology

T-Det® A 26-Series NR ethoxylates are based on Harcros patented narrow range technology. Cloud point and solubility profiles suit hard surface cleaners, laundry detergents, and all-purpose cleaners where consistent foam and detergency are required.

Applications and compatibility

NR ethoxylates pair with low-foam systems and HI&I formulations. Read the narrow range ethoxylates guide for market context.

T-Det® A 26-Series consists of linear C12–C16 ethoxylates. These products exhibit excellent detergent properties and can be used in a wide variety of formulations.

Compatibility, Handling & Storage

Due to its nonionic structure, this product is compatible with anionic and cationic surfactants and is stable in the presence of acids, bases, and salts. Please refer to SDS for further information.
