Action and use<\/strong><\/p>\n Non-ionic surfactant.<\/p>\n Ph Eur<\/p>\n A mixture of monoesters and diesters of mainly oleic (cis-9-octadecenoic) acid and macrogols. It may be obtained by ethoxylation of Oleic acid (0799) or by esterification of macrogols with oleic acid of animal or vegetable origin. It may contain free macrogols. The average polymer length is equivalent to 5-6 or 10 moles of ethylene oxide per mole (nominal value).
