Description

Diethanolamine Lauryl Sulfate is a high-purity anionic surfactant derived from lauryl alcohol and diethanolamine. This compound is valued for its excellent foaming, emulsifying, and cleansing properties, making it a critical component in formulations requiring mild yet effective surface activity. It is primarily utilized by manufacturers in the personal care, home care, and industrial cleaning sectors to enhance product performance and stability.

Application

• Personal Care Formulations: A key surfactant in shampoos, body washes, facial cleansers, and bubble baths for its rich lather and mildness on skin and hair.
• Household & Institutional Cleaners: Used in liquid dish soaps, all-purpose cleaners, and floor care products for its effective degreasing and foaming capabilities.
• Industrial & Mechanical Cleaners: Serves as an emulsifier and wetting agent in metal cleaning, textile processing, and automotive wash formulations.
• Cosmetic & Toiletry Products: Incorporated into shaving creams, hand soaps, and other toiletry items to improve texture and cleansing efficiency.
• Agricultural Adjuvants: Functions as a surfactant in pesticide and herbicide formulations to enhance spray coverage and adhesion on plant surfaces.
• Emulsion Polymerization: Acts as an emulsifier in the production of synthetic latexes, acrylics, and other polymer dispersions.
