Description

Sodium n-Lauroylsarcosinate is a high-purity, anionic surfactant derived from sarcosine and lauric acid. This compound is valued for its excellent foaming, cleansing, and mildness properties, making it a superior alternative to traditional surfactants like sodium lauryl sulfate. It is essential for formulators in the personal care, cosmetics, and industrial cleaning sectors who require effective, gentle, and biodegradable ingredients. Its compatibility with a wide pH range and other surfactants enhances formulation flexibility.

Application

• Personal Care & Cosmetics: Primary surfactant in mild facial cleansers, shampoos, body washes, and shaving foams.
• Oral Care: Key foaming agent in toothpaste and mouthwash formulations for gentle yet effective cleaning.
• Industrial & Institutional Cleaners: Used in hard surface cleaners, dishwashing liquids, and car wash solutions for high foam and detergency.
• Pharmaceuticals: Employed as an emulsifier or solubilizer in topical preparations and medicated cleansers.
• Agricultural Adjuvants: Functions as a wetting agent and spreader in pesticide and herbicide formulations.
• Textile Processing: Acts as a scouring agent and wetting agent in fiber and fabric treatment.

Quality Control

Our Sodium n-Lauroylsarcosinate is manufactured under a cGMP-compliant quality management system. Every batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure it meets stringent specifications for identity, purity, and performance. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting key parameters such as assay, pH, and heavy metal content are available upon request. We support compliance with global regulatory frameworks including REACH, FDA, and ISO standards.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can lead to caking or degradation.
