Runtec®APG1214 features low surface tension, no cloud point, HLB12-14, strong wetting and cleaning power, rich and fine foam, excellent compatibility, non-toxicity, skin-friendly properties, rapid biodegradation, and synergistic effects when combined with various surfactants and additives. It demonstrates broad-spectrum antibacterial activity, significant thickening effect, easy dilution, no gelation, and convenient application. Additionally, it exhibits resistance to strong alkalis, acids, hard water, and salts. This versatile compound serves as a primary raw material for daily chemical products including shampoos, shower gels, facial cleansers, laundry detergents, hand sanitizers, dishwashing liquids, and fruit/vegetable cleaners. It is also used in synthetic detergents such as soap powders, phosphorus-free detergents, and laundry powders. Furthermore, it functions as an emulsifier for food, pesticides, and silicone oils; a synergist for insecticides and herbicides; a fog-proof agent for agricultural films; a plastic additive; and finds applications in pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, industrial cleaning, fire-fighting agents, textile auxiliaries, coatings, photosensitive materials, leather processing, oil extraction, mineral processing, rubber/plastic manufacturing, and energy sectors.
Runtec®APG1214 is safe (free from toxic byproducts like dioxane), mild, and antibacterial, aligning with the development trends of personal care products. It is poised to replace existing petroleum-based surfactants as the dominant surface-active agent.
Runtec®APG1214 has excellent thickening property, foam stability, high surface activity and good compatibility.
