Product Packaging
Triethylene glycol monododecyl ether is a long-chain fatty alcohol with the chemical formula C12H26O. Due to its long carbon chains and hydroxyl groups (- OH) in its structure, it has a wide range of applications in industry and daily chemicals. The following are its main applications:
1. Surfactant raw materials
Triethylene glycol monododecyl ether is an important raw material for synthesizing non-ionic surfactants, such as alcohol polyoxyethylene ether (such as dodecyl alcohol polyoxyethylene ether).
Triethylene glycol monododecyl ether can be used to produce emulsifiers, wetting agents, dispersants, etc., and is widely used in:
Detergents and cleaning agents
Textile auxiliaries
pesticide emulsifier
2. Lubricants and lubricant additives
Triethylene glycol monododecyl ether has good lubricity and thermal stability, and can be used as:
Triethylene glycol monododecyl ether industrial lubricant additive
Composition of metalworking fluid
Lubricants for mechanical equipment
3. Chemical synthesis intermediates
Triethylene glycol monododecyl ether can be used to synthesize various alcohol derivatives, such as:
Esters (e.g. 3-dodecyl esters can be used as plasticizers)
Ether and other surfactants
Triethylene glycol monododecyl ether is an important raw material for the production of coatings, inks, plastic additives, and functional materials.
4. Plasticizers and softeners

Triethylene glycol monododecyl ether can be used as a softener in the textile industry, giving fabrics a soft and smooth feel.
5. Cosmetics and personal care products
Due to its mild properties and good lubricity, Triethylene glycol monododecyl ether can be used as:
Emollients and humectants: used in skin care products, lotion and creams to help keep skin smooth and soft.
Emulsifier: It can help emulsify and stabilize the water oil phase in cream and cosmetics.
Solvent: Used as an oil soluble ingredient in fragrances and cosmetics.
6. Perfume and essence carrier
Triethylene glycol monododecyl ether can be used as a carrier or diluent for fragrances, prolonging the volatilization time of the aroma and making it more long-lasting.
7. Industrial solvents
Triethylene glycol monododecyl ether, as an organic solvent, can be used in oily systems to dissolve or dilute other chemicals, and is widely used in inks, coatings, and other industrial products.
8. Anti foaming agents and defoamers
Triethylene glycol monododecyl ether can be used as a defoamer for:
paper industry
Chemical production process
Fermentation and sewage treatment
