Ethomeen O/12 High-Efficiency Hydrochloric Acid System Toilet Cleaner Thickener

Toilet cleaners can be broadly classified into three categories based on their formulation composition: acidic products, neutral products, and alkaline products. Acidic products dominate the market due to their superior cleaning performance. So, how can acidic toilet cleaners be thickened? Let Qinxiang New Materials introduce the method below.

Ethomeen O/12Product Features

• Ethomeen O/12 is a novel thickener for hydrochloric acid systems, offering high thickening efficiency, stable viscosity, and relative insensitivity to ambient temperature and storage time.;

• When used appropriately, it prevents gel formation and provides good cling properties.;

• It also delivers auxiliary cleaning, foaming, and corrosion inhibition performance.;

• The product appears as a yellow liquid. At low temperatures, it solidifies into a paste; both states can be used directly..

Properties and Cling Effect of Ethomeen O/12 Toilet Cleaner Formulation

Test Formulation:

8% active hydrochloric acid, 1.5% Ethomeen O/12, appropriate amount of colorant, water to balance (no fragrance or other nonionic surfactants added).

Cling effect evaluation was conducted on an inclined painted panel.

Application Recommendations

• Thickening of toilet cleaners/liquids in hydrochloric acid systems

• Also suitable for thickening acidic detergent formulations containing other inorganic or organic acids

Formulation Guidelines:

Formulation Steps

First, dissolveEthomeen O/12 in water and mix until uniform, then sequentially add fragrance, non-ionic surfactant, appropriate amount of dye, etc. while maintaining stirring, finally add the required hydrochloric acid, continue stirring until a transparent liquid with certain viscosity is obtained.
