Description

Ammonium Lauryl Sulfate is a high-purity anionic surfactant derived from lauryl alcohol. This compound is valued for its excellent foaming, wetting, and emulsifying properties, making it a critical component in formulations requiring mild yet effective cleansing action. It is primarily utilized by manufacturers in the personal care, home care, and industrial cleaning sectors for creating high-performance products.

Application

• Primary Foaming Agent in shampoos, body washes, and facial cleansers for a rich, stable lather.
• Key Surfactant in liquid hand soaps, bubble baths, and shaving creams.
• Emulsifying and Dispersing Agent in cosmetic and topical pharmaceutical preparations.
• Cleaning Formulations for household and industrial detergents and all-purpose cleaners.
• Textile Processing aid for wetting and scouring in fiber treatment.
• Agricultural Adjuvants to enhance the spreading and penetration of agrochemicals.
