Alcohols, including higher fatty alcohols, are compounds consisting of a hydroxyl group and a carbon chain. These include natural and synthetic alcohols, primary and secondary alcohols, linear and branched alcohols, saturated and unsaturated alcohols, as well as those with even and odd amounts of carbon atoms.
Alkalis are strong organic bases with corrosive properties.
Alkanolamides belong to the group of non-ionic surfactants. Their hydrophilic part is a mono- or diethanolamine group, while the hydrophobic part is a saturated or unsaturated carbon chain with a length of 8 to 22 carbon atoms.
Alkanoloamides are phosphate derivatives of fatty compounds and of coconut oil amino acids and fatty acids.
Alkoxylated alkylarylphenols belong to the group of non-ionic surfactants.
Alkoxylated ether polyols are chemicals consisting of a polyol part and an alkoxy group with ethylene chains (-CH2CH2O-).
