Dowanol EPH is produced in the industry by the hydroxyethylation of phenol (Williamson synthesis), for example, in the presence of alkali-metal hydroxides or alkali-metal borohydrides.

EFFICACY OF DOWANOL EPH:
Dowanol EPH is effective against gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria, and the yeast Candida albicans.

BENEFITS OF DOWANOL EPH:
*Environmental Profile:
Dowanol EPH offers a favorable environmental profile with low volatility.

*Performance:
Dowanol EPH provides superior performance in end-use applications, often requiring less solvent compared to other glycol ethers.

*Compatibility:
Dowanol EPH is compatible with various resins, including nitrocellulose, cellulose acetate, ethyl cellulose, and many vinyl, phenolic, alkyd, and ester-type resins.

*Coalescing Ability:
Dowanol EPH exhibits excellent coalescing properties, improving film formation in coatings and adhesives.

*Preservative Efficacy:
Dowanol EPH demonstrates broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity, effective against a wide range of bacteria, yeasts, and molds.

HOW TO USE DOWANOL EPH:
Premix Dowanol EPH with other preservatives and oil.
Heat this oil phase to 35° C.

Combine the water phase ingredients and heat up to 40° C.
Slowly add the water phase to the oil phase while homogenising.
Continue homogenising for 5 minutes.

HOW IS DOWANOL EPH PRODUCED?
Dowanol EPH production occurs by the reaction of phenol with ethylene oxide under basic environmental conditions.

WHAT ARE DOWANOL EPH'S PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL PROPERTIES?
In terms of physical appearance, Dowanol EPH is in the form of a colorless oily liquid.
Dowanol EPH has a pleasant odor.
The melting point is between 11 °C and 13 °C.

The boiling point is 247 °C.
The density of Dowanol EPH is 1.107 g/ml at 20 °C.

Its solubility is low in water because Dowanol EPH is an oily liquid.
Dowanol EPH has good solubility in ethyl alcohol, ether and sodium hydroxide .

Stability:
Dowanol EPH is stable in the presence of alkaline chemicals and acids.

WHAT COSMETICS IS DOWANOL EPH FOUND IN?
You can find Dowanol EPH as an ingredient in a wide variety of cosmetics and hygiene products, including:
*perfume
*foundation
*blush
*lipstick
*soaps
*hand sanitizer
*ultrasound gel, and more

WHY IS DOWANOL EPH ADDED TO COSMETICS?
In perfumes, fragrances, soaps, and cleansers, Dowanol EPH works as a stabilizer.
In other cosmetics, Dowanol EPH’s used as an antibacterial and/or a preservative to prevent products from losing their potency or spoiling.

FUNCTIONS OF DOWANOL EPH:
*Antimicrobial:
Dowanol EPH helps to slow down the growth of micro-organisms on the skin and neutralise microbial growth.

*Preservative :
Dowanol EPH inhibits the growth of micro-organisms in cosmetic products.

In the paint industry, Dowanol EPH is used as a solvent for paint inks, waxes, shellac, paints, varnishes and epoxy resin coatings.
Dowanol EPH can therefore be used in paint strippers, especially in combination with compatible viscosity enhancers, to make the mixture adhere to the painted surfaces.

Dowanol EPH products provide easy paint removal without damaging the surface and structure of metal, concrete or other finishes.
Dowanol EPH is important to check that Dowanol EPH does not dissolve the parts or their structure.
