Features Of BASF Pluronic RPE 1720 Surfactant

  1. Nonionic triblock copolymer based on poly(ethylene oxide)-poly(propylene oxide)-poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO-PPO-PEO) architecture.

  2. Optimized hydrophilic-lipophilic balance (HLB ≈ 20) for effective solubilization and stabilization in aqueous systems.

  3. Low foaming profile suitable for high-shear and recirculating industrial processes.

  4. Excellent thermal and pH stability across broad operating ranges (pH 3–11, up to 80 °C).

  5. Readily biodegradable and compliant with OECD 301B screening criteria for environmental safety.

Typical Applications Of BASF Pluronic RPE 1720 Surfactant

  1. Stabilizer and solubilizer in agrochemical formulations (e.g., SC, SE, and OD concentrates).

  2. Emulsifier in polymer emulsion synthesis, including styrene-butadiene and acrylic latexes.

  3. Wetting and dispersing agent in industrial cleaning and metalworking fluid concentrates.

  4. Viscosity modifier and co-stabilizer in personal care emulsions (e.g., sunscreens and cleansing lotions).

  5. Performance additive in oilfield chemical systems for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) surfactant flooding.
