We are committed to bringing you Greener Alternative Products, which adhere to one or more of The 12 Principles of Green Chemistry. This product is a biodegradable surfactant and is aligned with the 10th principle of Green Chemistry "Design for Degradation".Tergitol 15-S-7 is a linear non-ionic surfactant that is a secondary ethoxylated alcohol. It is compatible with anionic, cationic, and other nonionic surfactants.
MDL Number: MFCD00132411
Application: Tergitol(TM) 15-S-7 has been used:
•To study the synergistic effect of Tergitol 15-S-7 and AOT (dioctyl sulfosuccinate) on bacterial oxidation of alkanes in crude oils
•In cloud-point extraction technique to extract polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons from aqueous solutions
•Along with MgSO4 in anolyte reservoir for electrokinetic experiments
•As a very efficient surfactant in removing non-polar oil
•To study the phase behavior of surfactant-brine-oil system, which is desired for enhanced oil recovery
