  • Applications

    2,2'-((2-(Dodecyloxy)ethyl)imino)bis(ethanol) (CAS 1733-93-3) is a nonionic surfactant with a long dodecyl chain and hydrophilic hydroxyethyl groups, typically used as an emulsifier and solubilizer in water–oil systems. Representative applications include cosmetics and personal care (emulsification, stabilization of emulsions), household cleaning products (surfactant, wetting agent), coatings and inks (wetting and emulsification to aid pigment dispersion), polymer and plastic materials (emulsifier, processing aid, dispersion improvement), and industrial formulations as a solvent/emulsifier or surface-active additive, subject to local regulations and formulation limits.
