Description

n-Dodecyltaurine Sodium Salt is a high-purity, anionic surfactant derived from taurine and lauryl alcohol. This compound is valued for its excellent foaming, wetting, and emulsifying properties, along with good compatibility and mildness. It is primarily utilized in the formulation of personal care products, industrial cleaners, and specialized chemical processes where a stable, high-performance surfactant is required. Our supply ensures consistent quality and reliable material traceability for industrial buyers.

Application

• Personal Care & Cosmetics: Key ingredient in shampoos, body washes, and facial cleansers for its mildness and rich, stable foam.
• Industrial & Institutional (I&I) Cleaners: Used in formulations for hard surface cleaners, degreasers, and vehicle wash products due to its effective wetting and emulsification.
• Textile Processing: Functions as a wetting agent, dispersant, and leveling agent in dyeing and finishing operations.
• Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR): Investigated as a component in surfactant-polymer flooding formulations to reduce interfacial tension.
• Agricultural Adjuvants: Employed as a surfactant in pesticide and herbicide formulations to improve spreading and adherence on plant surfaces.
• Research & Development: Serves as a standard or intermediate in the synthesis of more complex surfactants and biochemical studies.

Quality Control

Our n-Dodecyltaurine Sodium Salt is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Every batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing to ensure it meets precise specifications for identity, purity, and performance. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing batch-specific results is provided with each shipment to guarantee traceability and compliance with your quality requirements.

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 product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can affect quality.
