Description

Sodium 2-(Dodecyloxy)Ethyl Sulphate is a high-purity anionic surfactant and specialty chemical intermediate. This compound is valued for its excellent wetting, emulsifying, and dispersing properties in demanding formulations. It is essential for manufacturers in the personal care, textile processing, and industrial cleaning sectors seeking consistent performance and reliable supply.

Application

• Primary Surfactant in Personal Care: Used in shampoos, body washes, and facial cleansers for its mildness and rich lather.
• Textile Processing Aid: Acts as a wetting and leveling agent in dyeing and finishing baths.
• Industrial & Institutional (I&I) Cleaners: Key component in heavy-duty degreasers, floor cleaners, and metal treatment formulations.
• Emulsion Polymerization: Serves as an emulsifier and stabilizer in the production of acrylic, vinyl acetate, and styrene-butadiene polymers.
• Agricultural Adjuvants: Enhances the spreading and adhesion of pesticides and herbicides on plant surfaces.
• Leather Processing: Utilized in fatliquoring and dyeing processes for uniform penetration and softness.
