LEVENOL® C-301 is a new generation of non-ionic surfactant. Compared with other normally used non-ionic surfactants, as synthetic ethoxylated alcohols, LEVENOL® C-301 presents several ecological and toxicological advantages. This liquid surfactant is of vegetable origin and is ready biodegradable and presents very low toxicity. LEVENOL® C-301 can be classified as an optimum raw material to be applied in detergents. Preparations (detergents) where LEVENOL® C-301 is included as substitute of standard non-ionic surfactant (fatty alcohol ethoxylated) can be classified or described with more advantageous symbols and safe phrases and even sometimes preparations don’t need any symbol. The above mentioned properties and its foaming capacity are relatively high compared to other products of the same range.
