- The MAKON 8 surfactants is nonionic in nature; they neither ionize in water nor hydrolyze in aqueous acid or alkaline solutions.
- Chemically, they are the reaction products of nonylphenol and ethylene oxide.
- They differ in the mole ratio of hydrophilic ethylene oxide to hydrophobic nonylphenol.
- The MAKON 8 surfactants are high active products that offer a broad range of properties.
- Because of this versatility, MAKON products find application in a number of different industries and in a multitude of products including agricultural emulsions, detergents, sanitizers, industrial cleaners, metal cleaners, textiles, paper de-inking and drilling products

Safety & Health
- Health and Environmental Effects Information
- MAKON 8 biodegradable.
- MAKON 8 slightly to practically non-toxic orally (LD50 > 1400 mg/kg).
- Undiluted MAKON products are moderately to severely irritating to eyes, while concentrations of 25% or less are minimally irritating to eyes.
Packaging & Availability
Storage & Handling
- Storage Condition
- Normal safety precautions (i.e. gloves and safety goggles) should be employed when handling MAKON surfactants.
- Contact with the eyes and prolonged contact with the skin should be avoided.
- Wash thoroughly after handling material.
- It is recommended that MAKON products be stored in sealed containers and kept in a cool, dry place.
- If material is frozen it should be heated gently and stirred to ensure it is homogeneous before use.
- Bulk Storage Information: MAKON surfactants can be stored in vessels of 316 stainless steel, but carbon steel is adequate. Material should be stored between 100 - 110°F. An internal hairpin coil of carbon steel with low pressure steam (under 50 psig) should be used if heating is required. Mild agitation is required if the tank is heated. Material is heat sensitive and agitation prevents localized heating. Heating may not be required for inside storage if the tank is turned over frequently. Stainless steel 316 is preferred for pumps, pipes and transfer lines; however, carbon steel is adequate.
