    I have been ussing nonylphhenols as solubilizer and cosurfactant in cleaning products for home, i have read that they are dangerous for sea animals, but there are nit many information about it safetly in humans, i have seen few “splash” and “furniture deodorizer” ussing it as solubilizer.

    Btw i think that 3% is a little high, i have used it between 0.1%-1% as solubilizer, you could try tween’s that are a good sustitute and very cheap.

    yes i found 3% of nonylephenole 10 mol is high … Im my last experiment i used 1% it is perfect for  3% essence 

    now the question ………..
    can i use this percent in my product for ( clothes and furniture and air freshener )  or it is dangerous and not good for this work ? 
      mr. perry my supplier told me he dosnt have information about that he is just a seller man

    I am surprised you had trouble finding safety information. Two minutes with Google found this:

    Considering it is reported as having effects on reproductive systems, I myself would not want to use it or be exposed to it.
    From the PDF intro:
    The calculated oral No Observable Adverse Effects Level (NOAEL) for repeated dose for
    humans was 15 mg/kg/day based on the endocrine disruptive effects in rats. Data from modeling
    suggest that there are concerns for human health with respect to local exposure, based on low
    margins between modeled exposures and the N(L)OAELs for repeated dose and reproductive
    toxicity.
