CMEE Coconut Methyl Ester Ethoxylates CAS 65218-33-7

CMEE Coconut Ethoxylates are easy to work with and have a very low freezing point.
It is mild and eco-friendly. CMEE Coconut Methyl Ester Ethoxylates have low foam and are easy to wash. Coldwater dissolution speed, no gel phase, good compatibility.

The Fatty acids methyl esters were originally used to produce fatty alcohols. However, they can also be used as a sulfonate of the fatty acids methyl esters a= sodium chloride, or MES.
MES has a poor color and generates a large amount of disodium salt, which impacts the washing performance. The price of linear alkylbenzene salt sulfonate is very high and the products are difficult to manufacture with high concentrations. Fatty acid methyl ester is made from renewable oil which meets all the requirements for human living.
The use and production of fatty acid-methyl ester have been increasing over the past few years due to the increasing global environmental protection standards. Recently, both domestic and foreign researchers have explored the possibilities for fatty acids methyl esters to be used in a wider range of applications.
Japanese Lion and German Condia have compared FMEE and laurate ether's physical and chemical characteristics since the 1990s.
Both have similar surface tension properties, such as wetting power and detergency. However, alcohol ether has lower turbidity points and foaming powers, while the water solubility is slightly less.
Henkel has found that fatty acid methyl ester ethoxylates containing a mass fraction of 60% EO have a significantly higher stain removal ability than alcohol ether (AEO), with the same carbon numbers, at 40C.
A patent indicates that fatty-acid methyl ester ethoxylates can be used in a variety of applications due to the excellent surface properties.
The Chinese National Institute of Daily Chemical Industry's technical staff developed the technology and catalyst for the preparation of FMEE, using fatty acid-methyl ester (FAME) as a raw material with ethylene oxide added. They also studied the synthesis of FMEE utilizing a selfmade catalyst.
The results indicate that FMEE is not only similar to AEO in terms of properties, but also offers the following advantages: low foaming, quick water solubility (strong oil solubilization), less skin irritation, and good biodegradation. This makes FMEE ideal for hard surface cleaning as well as liquid cleaning pesticides emulsifiers.
China Daily Chemical Industry Research Institute & Fushun Dongyuan Chemical Plant Cooperation completed two industrial scale production experiments in 2002 at Fushun Dongyuan Chemical Plant 52,000V/a.
The manufacturer uses a product called cMEE-8, which is an epoxy ethane product that has been condensed into 8 molecules. The powdered washing has undergone various tests and produced good results. It has good prospects for industrial use.
