TI/A/FP0479-01 Noigen X 100
February 2001 (Nonionic versatile detergent and wetting agent)
‘Noigen X 100' is mainly developed as versatile nonionic detergent
and wetting agent.
Type Non-ionic
Constitution Alkyl aryl polyether alcohol
Features • Easily soluble in water and forms transparent solution with foam.
It is also soluble in alcohols, ketones and other polar solvents.
• It has excellent emulsifying and dispersing power. It readily
emulsifies oils, greases and solvents. The emulsification power
of Noigen X 100 is considerably improved in combination with
soaps, sulphonates etc.
• It is a rapid and thorough wetting and penetrating agent at very
low concentrations. The typical wetting time for 0.1% aq. soln of
Noigen X 100 by Canvas Disc Method is 20.3 Sec.
• It is a power detergent and is extremely useful in removing oils,
greases, waxes without redeposit ion on the soil. Its excellent
risibility even at low temperatures ensures thorough cleaning in
shorter cleaning time.
• It has excellent antistatic properties.
• It has excellent stability in the presence of high concentrations
of alkalis and metallic ions.
• It is stable to high temperatures and its wetting, detergent and
dispersing powers are not affected at high temperatures.
• It is compatible with other nonionic and anionic products, starch,
glue, CMC, Methyl Cellulose, Hydroxy ethyl cellulose, etc.
• It is stable to oxidizing and reducing agents such as Hypo
chlorites of soda or calcium ,Sodium per borate, Hydrogen
peroxide, Sodium nitrite, Sodium bisulphite, Sodium
hydrosulphite formaldehyde, Sodium sulphoxylate formaldehyde
etc.
