Product Details
NP/NPEs, also known as nonylphenols and nonylphenol ethoxylates, are nonionic surfactants, or detergent-like substances, with uses that lead to widespread release into aquatic environments. NP/NPEs are highly toxic to aquatic life. Note: EPA’s September 2014 proposed Significant New Use Rule covers only NP/NPEs that are no longer being used in manufacturing or in products; the SNUR would give EPA the opportunity to review new or resumed use of these 15 NP/NPEs.
