Natural alcohol ethoxylates
Oleyl ethoxylates
The Genapol ® O range is used in emulsion polymerization of vinyl
acetate together with acrylates, vinyl chloride or ethylene as well as
in acrylate and acrylate/styrene dispersions to prevent the polymer
dispersion from coagulation and to improve the electrolyte resistance
and freeze/thaw stability. As an emulsifier for waxes and organic
C16/18 fatty alcohol ethoxylates
The Genapol ® T grades find widespread use as detergents in heavyduty
washing powders, as dispersing agents and solubilizers, as
wetting agents for industrial applications in aqueous solutions, as
emulsifiers for O/W - emulsions of oils, fats, paraffin, polyolefin waxes
and silicone oil emulsions and as emulsifiers for emulsion polymerization.
In powder form, they can be applied as a binder for granula-
solvents, these products help to produce stable emulsions. Further -
more, they can be applied as a wetting agent and detergent in industrial
cleaning formulations, as a dispersing agent in pigment
preparations and as emulsifier for textile auxiliaries and detergents.

tions and in tablet processing or coating. Genapol ® T 250 Powder also
serves as a wetting agent for solid admixtures in the construction
industry, improving the wetting of the fine particles of the dry plaster
or mortar and thus the plastification, workability and overall performance
of the plaster or mortar.
