Used as a non-ionic surfactant in cleaning products, it effectively reduces surface tension, enhancing the wetting and spreading properties of detergents and cleaners. In industrial applications, it serves as an emulsifier, aiding in the stabilization of oil-water mixtures in formulations like paints, coatings, and agrochemicals. Additionally, it is utilized in personal care products, such as shampoos and lotions, to improve texture and consistency. Its ability to solubilize oils and fragrances makes it valuable in cosmetic formulations. In the textile industry, it acts as a leveling agent, ensuring even dye distribution during the dyeing process.
