Myrj S40 is a biodegradable nonionic surfactant. It is derived from a natural fatty acid (stearic acid) and ethylene oxide and finds use in many home care and I&I applications. Myrj is often blended with products from the Span range to obtain stable emulsions.
For customers seeking a sustainable palm alternative to Myrj S40, Croda can offer SP Myrj S40 MBAL which is manufactured via RSPO’s Mass Balance System.
