LUTENSOL TO 12 is a nonionic surfactant.
LUTENSOL TO 12 is based on a saturated iso-C13-alcohol.
LUTENSOL TO 12 is C-13 oxo alcohol alkoxylates used as an industrial formulator.
LUTENSOL TO 12 is manufactured by causing the iso-C13 oxo alcohol to react with ethylene oxide in stoichiometric proportions.
The ethoxylation tempature of LUTENSOL TO 12 is kept as low as possible.
LUTENSOL TO 12, combined with the high purity of the feedstocks, ensures that high-performance products with low toxicity are obtained.
The numeric code in LUTENSOL TO 12 name indicates the degree of ethoxylation.
LUTENSOL TO 12 is a soft, slightly yellowish paste.

Storage of LUTENSOL TO 12:
LUTENSOL TO 12 containers should be stored tightly sealed in a dry place.
The LUTENSOL TO types should be stored indoors in a dry place.
Storerooms must not be overheated.
They are hygroscopic and readily soluble in water, with the result that they absorb moisture very quickly.
Drums must be resealed each time they are opened.
The storage temperature should not be allowed to fall substantially below 20 °C.
The setting points of these products also need to be taken into account.
LUTENSOL TO 2, TO 3, TO 5, TO 6, TO 65, TO 7, TO 79 and TO 8, are cloudy liquids at room temperature, and they tend to form a sediment.
This cloudiness can be dissipated by heating them to approx. 50 °C.
Liquid that has solidified or that shows signs of sedimentation should be heated to 50 – 70 °C and homogenized before LUTENSOL TO 12 is processed.
Drums that have solidified or that have begun to precipitate should be reconstituted by gentle heating, preferably in a heating cabinet.
The temperature must not be allowed to exceed 70 °C.
This also applies if drums are heated by external electrical elements.
Internal electrical elements should not be used because of the localized anomalies in temperature that they cause.
The LUTENSOL TO types must be blanketed with nitrogen if they are stored in heated tanks (at 50 – 70 °C) to prevent them from coming into contact with air.
Constant, gentle stirring helps to prevent them being discoloured as a result of prolonged contact with electrical elements or external heating coils.
Shelf life of LUTENSOL TO 12:
The LUTENSOL TO types have a shelf life of at least two years in their original packaging,
provided they are stored properly and drums are kept tightly sealed.
The usage period of LUTENSOL TO 12 is 2 years.
Safety and Certifications of LUTENSOL TO 12:
GHS classification, Hazard statements, Certifications, Renewable Carbon Index (RCI)
