Castor Oil Ethoxylate 45 (ABLUNOL CO-45) Supplier in Malaysia
- Also known as
- ABLUNOL CO-45
- PEG-45 Castor Oil
- Castor Oil 45 EO
- Ethoxylated Castor Oil 45 Moles
Castor oil ethoxylate 45 is a non-ionic surfactant produced by reacting castor oil with about 45 moles of ethylene oxide. Buyers may also search PEG-45 castor oil, castor oil 45 EO or ethoxylated castor oil 45 moles; the trade name ABLUNOL CO-45 refers to this same chemistry, not to alkyl polyglucoside surfactants.
The EO mole count drives water solubility and HLB, so the 45-mole grade sits at the solubilising and emulsifying end of the castor oil ethoxylate range. Commercial material is typically a clear to pale yellow liquid, soluble in water and most organic solvents, selected for wetting, foaming support and surface-tension reduction.
Personal-care formulators use it in shampoos, body washes and facial cleansers. Household cleaner blenders use it as a foaming and wetting agent, and industrial or pharmaceutical liquid systems may specify it when a higher-EO castor oil ethoxylate is required. It is a different product from PEG-40 hydrogenated castor oil and from unmodified castor oil.

Common questions about castor oil ethoxylate 45
What is ABLUNOL CO-45?
ABLUNOL CO-45 is a trade name for castor oil ethoxylate 45, also called PEG-45 castor oil or castor oil 45 EO. It is a non-ionic surfactant made by reacting castor oil with about 45 moles of ethylene oxide. It is not the same chemistry as alkyl polyglucosides such as caprylyl/capryl glucoside.
How does the 45-mole grade differ from lower EO castor oil ethoxylates?
Ethylene oxide content sets water solubility and HLB. A 45-mole grade sits toward the more water-soluble, higher-HLB end of the castor oil ethoxylate range and is typically chosen for solubilising and emulsifying work rather than oil-soluble duties. Match the EO level stated on your specification.
Is castor oil ethoxylate 45 the same as PEG-40 hydrogenated castor oil?
No. PEG-40 hydrogenated castor oil is an ethoxylated derivative of hydrogenated castor oil at a different nominal EO level. Castor oil ethoxylate 45 is ethoxylated (non-hydrogenated) castor oil at about 45 moles. Use the exact identity named on the formulation or customer specification.
Which applications commonly use PEG-45 castor oil?
Personal-care rinse-off products, household cleaners and selected industrial or pharmaceutical liquid systems that need a non-ionic emulsifier, solubiliser or wetting agent. State the finished product type and performance target when enquiring.
What details should I include for a quotation?
Provide the trade name or generic grade (for example ABLUNOL CO-45 or PEG-45 castor oil), application, any customer specification, quantity, preferred packing and delivery location. List document needs so the quote can address the full requirement.
Can packing and documentation be confirmed with the quote?
Yes. Preferred pack format and required product documents should be listed in the enquiry. What can be supplied for the quoted grade is confirmed with the quotation.
