Description

Sodium n-Nonyl Sulfate is a high-purity anionic surfactant derived from linear nonanol. This compound is valued for its excellent wetting, emulsifying, and foaming properties in aqueous systems. It serves as a critical raw material for formulators in the personal care, industrial cleaning, and textile processing industries. Its linear alkyl chain structure ensures superior biodegradability and performance consistency.

Application

• Personal Care Formulations: Used as a primary or secondary surfactant in shampoos, body washes, and facial cleansers for its mildness and rich lather.
• Industrial & Institutional (I&I) Cleaners: An effective component in heavy-duty degreasers, floor cleaners, and alkaline cleaning formulations.
• Textile Processing: Functions as a wetting agent, emulsifier, and dye leveling assistant in scouring and dyeing baths.
• Emulsion Polymerization: Acts as an anionic emulsifier in the synthesis of acrylic, styrene-butadiene, and other polymer lattices.
• Agricultural Adjuvants: Incorporated into pesticide and herbicide formulations to enhance spreading and adhesion on plant surfaces.
• Leather Processing: Employed in wetting and fatliquoring stages to ensure uniform penetration of chemicals and oils.

Quality Control

Our Sodium n-Nonyl Sulfate is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch is tested to ensure it meets precise specifications for active matter content, pH, and impurity profiles. Certificates of Analysis (COA) are provided with every shipment, documenting compliance with relevant standards. We support customer audits and can provide material tailored to specific regulatory needs, including those for cosmetic and industrial applications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); containers must be kept tightly sealed to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can lead to caking or performance variation. Keep away from strong oxidizing agents.
