Evonik produces a wide variety of nonionic surfactants. The Tomadol ethoxylates include both synthetic and plant-derived alcohols, and vary in both hydrophobe and ethylene oxide chain lengths, to yield a wide range of physical and surfactant properties. The Tomadol ethoxylates are excellent wetting agents, emulsifiers and detergents. Tomadol ethoxylates are moderate foamers. The Nonidet surfactants are nonionic surfactants that incorporate both ethylene oxide and propylene oxide to provide lower foam and good detergency.

TOMADOL® 25-3 is a low HLB nonionic surfactant that penetrates and emulsifies heavy oils and greases when combined with higher HLB surfactants. It is effective at all temperatures, and it is ideal for laundry detergent formulations. TOMADOL® 25-3 has high water solubility and a high cloud point for product clarity at higher temperatures. The emulsification provided helps prevent soil redeposition in laundry applications. It is readily biodegradable (>60% in 10days) and is high foaming.
