Commonly found in cleaning products that foam or suds, such as hand soaps, dishwashing liquids, and laundry detergents, ethoxylated surfactants can function as cleansers, emulsifiers, solubilizers and foaming agents.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Formulating away from 1,4-dioxane without sacrificing efficacy<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Manufacturers add ethylene oxide to the molecule \u2013 called ethoxylation \u2013 because the compound&#8217;s &#8220;water-loving&#8221; properties provide greatly improved performance where water and oil would not typically interact well. The ethoxylation process also allows formulators to temper some conventional cleaning ingredients \u2013 such as to produce a gentler skin reaction or a more appealing texture \u2013 albeit with the unintended consequence of the residual 1,4-dioxane.<\/p>\n<p>As the industry begins to know more about concerning ingredients like dioxane and other volatile organic compounds \u2013 and as consumers seek out safer and more sustainable options \u2013 there has been a positive response by innovating new classes of naturally derived surfactants that not only perform well from a cleaning and emulsifying standpoint, but also from a sustainability standpoint, delivering on cold water performance, biodegradability, and sourced from renewable feedstocks.<\/p>\n<p>While the chemical industry races to navigate the fast-approaching deadline, here\u2019s important information that will help you mobilize for the challenge and achieve better outcomes with lower-dioxane formulations, and perhaps even optimize your product line in the process.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-13461\" src=\"https:\/\/ulprospector.ul.com\/media\/2022\/08\/14-Dioxane-3-300x190.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"190\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ulprospector.ul.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/14-Dioxane-3-300x190.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ulprospector.ul.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/14-Dioxane-3-1024x648.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ulprospector.ul.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/14-Dioxane-3-768x486.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ulprospector.ul.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/14-Dioxane-3-1536x972.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/ulprospector.ul.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/14-Dioxane-3-2048x1296.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>More than just compliance and regulations<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u201cManufacturers need to act now, because the urgency exists on two fronts: First, while some products with low levels of ethylene oxide might remain compliant, a vast majority of products across the supply chain will fall above the new thresholds and require adjustment,\u201d says Alison Hunter, technical services manager for Univar Solutions. \u201cWith additional and stricter regulations expected as more regulators and governments move to protect consumers and water supplies, cleaning brands using ethoxylated surfactants would be wise to\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.univarsolutions.com\/industries\/homecare-industrial-cleaning\/1-4-dioxane-requirements\">formulate away from 1,4-dioxane<\/a>\u00a0or eliminate it now.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Once a calculation shows a reformulation is necessary, the steps and time involved to achieve compliance go beyond the time to reformulate or adjust levels, even for seemingly simple changes. In addition to creating the new formula, formulators should allow adequate time to confirm efficacy and perform stability and preservative testing, as well as packaging compatibility studies. Allowing time to scale-up production to ensure the new formulation performs just as successfully on the manufacturing line as it did in the lab, is advisable. \u201cIf you haven\u2019t started assessing levels, there\u2019s no time to waste,\u201d adds Hunter.<\/p>\n<p>Formulators can consider lowering the level of ethoxylated surfactants to a compliant level or replacing it with another type of surfactant that doesn\u2019t produce dioxane. This can be done either by replacing ethoxylated surfactants with bio-based surfactants or by rebalancing primary and secondary surfactant levels to achieve compliance.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Building on innovation and ingredients<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>With time and cost as key drivers, the technical experts at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ulprospector.com\/en\/na\/Cleaners\/Suppliers\/33580\/Univar-Solutions\/search?sug=1&amp;st=1\">Univar Solutions<\/a> have developed starter formulation kits to give you a valuable head start to reduce or eliminate 1,4-dioxane in common cleaning products.
