Abstract

A polyoxyalkylene monoalkyl ether which gives, in gel permeation chromatography, a chromatogram which satisfies a relation expressed by an equation: S1/S0≦0.15, wherein S1 represents the area under a portion of the chromatogram from the start of elution to the earliest elution time when the intensity of the refractive index has a value of L/3, L representing the shortest distance between the greatest maximum point of the intensity of the refractive index and the base line and S0 represents the area under a portion of the chromatogram from the start of elution to an elution time when the intensity of the refractive index has the greatest maximum value; a process for producing the above ether includes adjusting the content of water in a reactor, which is used in addition polymerization of alkylene oxides with addition to a monohydric alcohol, so as to satisfy an equation: Wi×(Cf−Ci)V≦10, wherein the content of water in the reactor is obtained by placing a solvent having a content of water Ci (ppm) in an amount Wi (g) in the reactor having an inner volume V (ml), stirring the solvent to clean the reactor, removing the solvent from the reactor and obtaining a content …
