EMPILAN CME/T is cocamide MEA in flake form.
EMPILAN CME/T is an excellent co-surfactant for both cosmetic and detergent applications.
EMPILAN CME/T is capable of enhancing the foam, in terms of boosting the volume and stabilising EMPILAN CME/T against the detrimental affects of hard water and soap.

EMPILAN CME/T is a very good foam-boosting/stabilizing agent when used in conjunction with anionic surfactants.
EMPILAN CME/T also provides an efficient means of increasing the viscosity of liquid formulations and can be used to pre-solubilize oils and perfumes during formulation.
EMPILAN CME/T acts as a surfactant.
EMPILAN CME/T is useful to solubilize a wide range of perfumes and active ingredients.
EMPILAN CME/T used in shower and bath products, creams and lotions, shampoo, solid formulations and liquid soaps.
EMPILAN CME/T boosts stability and volume of foam also in presence of hard water and soap.
EMPILAN CME/T can also be used to aid the dissolution or emulsification of oils and other hydrophobic ingredients in formulations as well as helping to remove greasy soils in cleaning applications.
Wetting Ability of EMPILAN CME/T:
The wetting ability was determined by the method ISO 8022 “Determination of wetting power by immersion”, commonly referred to as the Draves wetting test.
The results are expressed as the time elapsed, in seconds, measured at 25°C, with shorter wetting times indicating more efficient wetting agents.
Foam Characteristics of EMPILAN CME/T:
The foam characteristics were determined by the ASTM standard D1173, Ross & Miles foam test method.
The tests were carried out at a concentration of 1g/L in hard water and readings are expressed as volume of foam in mL, in seconds, at 25°C, at 0 seconds, then again after 60 and 300 seconds.
Storage and Handling of EMPILAN CME/T:
Liquid alcohol ethoxylates are prone to separate and eventually solidify at low temperatures, particularly during prolonged storage.
In this case, EMPILAN CME/T is recommended that EMPILAN CME/T should be re homogenised before use.
This is readily achieved by heating EMPILAN CME/T.
The clear point is the minimum temperature at which a homogenous solution can be expected.
Alcohol ethoxylates are chemically stable for at least 12 months in their original packaging.
Exposure to the atmosphere can cause EMPILAN CME/T to discolour with time, although this will not normally affect the performance.
Excess alkali and heat are both factors that will accelerate discolouration and EMPILAN CME/T is recommended not to store these products at elevated temperatures for prolonged periods, especially if colour is critical to the application
