MAPOL HX 20, also listed as SP20, is a styrenated phenol ethoxylate with 20 moles of ethylene oxide. Formulators looking for a styrenated phenol ethoxylate supplier in UAE use it as a non-ionic emulsifier in emulsifiable concentrate (EC) pesticide products.
Corofy supplies MAPOL HX 20 from Dubai to the agrochemical formulation industry in the UAE, the GCC and export markets in Africa and Asia. It is aimed at formulators who want a non-ionic emulsifier from outside the nonylphenol family.
MAPOL HX 20 Overview
Styrenated phenol ethoxylates are non-ionic surfactants with a bulky, oil-loving styrenated phenol group and a water-loving polyethylene glycol chain. The aromatic hydrophobe gives good compatibility with the aromatic solvents used in many ECs, while the 20-mole EO chain makes the HX 20 grade relatively hydrophilic.
Because of this balance, MAPOL HX 20 is often used together with an anionic emulsifier such as calcium alkylbenzene sulfonate (for example CORSA L70B). The pair forms a robust emulsifier system that helps the concentrate disperse quickly in water and keeps the emulsion stable in the tank. Styrenated phenol ethoxylates are also used as dispersants for solid particles.
MAPOL HX 20 Specifications
Product Identification
- Product Name: MAPOL HX 20 / SP20
Packaging & Documentation
- Documentation: COA, SDS / MSDS available
MAPOL HX 20 is packed in 220 kg drums. Each lot ships with a certificate of analysis and a safety data sheet, and Corofy can provide further technical data on request. Formulators moving away from nonylphenol-based emulsifiers often evaluate styrenated phenol ethoxylates such as HX 20 alongside castor oil ethoxylates, then settle on the grade that gives the best emulsion bloom and stability with their solvent and active.
Applications of MAPOL HX 20
MAPOL HX 20 is mainly used in crop protection, where emulsion quality and stability matter.
EC Formulations
- Non-ionic emulsifier for insecticide, herbicide and fungicide ECs.
- Works alongside anionic CABS emulsifiers in a balanced system.
Emulsion and Suspension Systems
- Can support emulsion stability in EW formulations.
- Acts as a co-dispersant in some suspension and suspo-emulsion recipes.
Emulsifier Blending
- Used by formulators and blenders to build pre-mixed emulsifier packages for specific actives.

Handling, Storage & Safety
Handle MAPOL HX 20 in line with its SDS. Like most ethoxylated surfactants it can irritate the eyes and may be harmful to aquatic life, so wear eye protection and gloves and avoid release to drains. Store drums tightly closed in a dry, covered place away from strong oxidising agents. Keep containers closed between uses to avoid moisture pick-up.
