TERGITOL NP-40 SURFACTANT

NP-40S

CAS Number: 9016-45-9

Nonionic surfactant for use in paper and textile processing, paints & coatings, and agrochemicals; featuring versatile solubility characteristics, high water solubility, suitability for use at higher temperatures.

TERGITOL NP-40 Surfactant (also known as Tergitol-type NP-40 and nonyl phenoxypolyethoxylethanol) is a commercially available detergent with CAS Registry Number 9016-45-9. 
TERGITOL NP-40 Surfactant is an ethoxylated nonylphenol for non-ionic surfactants and can act as emulsifier and demulsifier agent.

TERGITOL NP-40 Surfactant is often used to break open all membranes within a cell, including the nuclear membrane. 
To break only the cytoplasmic membrane, other detergents such as IGEPAL CA-630 can be used.

TERGITOL NP-40 Surfactant has applications in paper and textile processing, in paints and coatings, and in agrochemical manufacturing.
