Product Identification

What Is Lutensol ON 50?

Lutensol ON 50 is part of BASF’s Lutensol ON range of nonionic surfactants. The Lutensol ON types are alkyl polyethylene glycol ethers produced from a saturated synthetic short-chain fatty alcohol and ethylene oxide. The number in the product name usually indicates the approximate degree of ethoxylation; for Lutensol ON 50, this is approximately 5.

Its balanced HLB value, high surface activity, wetting performance and compatibility with multiple formulation systems make Lutensol ON 50 a useful candidate for industrial, agrochemical, water-conditioning, drilling, mining, cleaning and process formulations.

Applications of Lutensol ON 50

Agrochemicals and Crop Protection

Lutensol ON 50 can be evaluated as a nonionic surfactant in selected agricultural and crop-protection formulation systems where wetting, emulsification, dispersion support and spray-deposit behavior are important.

Crop-protection formulations

Emulsifiable concentrates and dispersion systems

Wetting-agent packages

Tank-mix and adjuvant systems

Herbicide, fungicide and insecticide formulation concepts

Formulations requiring nonionic alcohol ethoxylate chemistry

Water Conditioning and Industrial Water Systems

For water conditioning, Lutensol ON 50 can be evaluated in industrial formulations where nonionic surface activity, wetting and compatibility with process additives are required. Suitability for any final water-treatment system must be confirmed according to dosage, application conditions and regulatory requirements.

Drilling and Oilfield Formulations

Lutensol ON 50 may be evaluated in water-based or mixed drilling and oilfield chemical systems as a wetting, emulsifying or cleaning surfactant. Final performance should be tested under actual temperature, salinity, pH, pressure and compatibility conditions.

Mining and Mineral Processing

In mining and mineral-processing applications, Lutensol ON 50 can be assessed as a surface-active component for wetting, dispersion, cleaning, emulsification and process-additive packages. Laboratory and pilot testing are recommended before industrial use.

Detergents, Cleaners and Industrial Formulations

BASF positions Lutensol ON 50 as a nonionic surfactant for detergents, cleaners, chemical and allied industries. It is also relevant for industrial degreasing, vehicle-care, spray cleaners and formulation technologies requiring effective wetting and emulsification.

Typical Technical Properties

Solubility and Compatibility

The TDS reports the following stability/solubility behavior for 10% solutions of Lutensol ON 50 at 23 °C. Final compatibility must always be checked in the complete formulation.

Viscosity and Temperature Behaviour

Viscosity changes significantly with temperature. BASF technical information reports approximately 60,000 mPa·s at 0 °C, 1,000 mPa·s at 10 °C, 200 mPa·s at 20 °C, 160 mPa·s at 23 °C, 60 mPa·s at 30 °C, 30 mPa·s at 40 °C, 20 mPa·s at 50 °C and 10 mPa·s at 60 °C. This is important for pumping, storage, dilution and production handling.

Storage and Handling

Store indoors in original packaging with containers tightly sealed.

Protect against moisture; the product is hygroscopic and can absorb air humidity quickly.

Reseal drums immediately after each opening.

Avoid storage temperatures substantially below 20 °C and do not overheat storage rooms.

Cloudiness at low temperature normally does not affect performance and can be dissipated by heating to 30-40 °C.

Solidified or precipitated material should be heated to around 40 °C and homogenized before processing.

Do not exceed 70 °C during reconstitution; avoid internal electrical heating elements.

For heated tanks at 50-60 °C, nitrogen blanketing is recommended to minimize contact with air.

Shelf life is at least two years in original packaging when stored properly and drums are kept tightly sealed.

Safety and Regulatory Information

According to the BASF Safety Data Sheet, Lutensol ON 50 is classified under UN GHS as Acute Toxicity Category 4 (oral), Eye Damage Category 1 and Aquatic Acute Category 3.

Signal word: Danger

H318 - Causes serious eye damage.

H302 - Harmful if swallowed.

H402 - Harmful to aquatic life.

Wear eye and face protection; avoid release to the environment; do not eat, drink or smoke when using the product.
