Methyl Capped Surfactants

What is Methyl Capped Surfactants?

Methyl capped surfactants (CAS 9003-11-6) are low-foaming nonionic surfactants formed by methyl end-capping of ethoxylated alcohols. They combine rapid wetting with minimal foam generation—ideal for spray cleaning, metal washing, and automated institutional systems.

Surfactants (surface-active agents) reduce surface tension between liquids or a liquid and a solid. They have hydrophilic and hydrophobic parts and act as emulsifiers, detergents, wetting agents, and dispersants.

Venus Ethoxyethers Pvt. Ltd. manufactures surfactants in India: non-ionic, anionic, cationic, and amphoteric. We supply ethoxylates, sulfates, sulfosuccinates, and specialty surfactants from our Goa facility.

Non-ionic surfactants have no charge and are compatible with all types. Anionic have a negative charge and are excellent for cleaning. Cationic have a positive charge for conditioning and antimicrobial use. Amphoteric can have both charges depending on pH.

The best surfactant depends on application, pH, compatibility, and desired properties. Our technical team can recommend the right surfactant for your formulation. Contact us for samples and support.
