Description

Ammonium Myreth Sulfate is a high-purity, mild anionic surfactant derived from fatty alcohols. This compound is valued for its excellent foaming, cleansing, and emulsifying properties, even in hard water conditions. It is a critical ingredient for manufacturers in the personal care and cosmetics industries seeking gentle yet effective formulations.

Application

• Primary Surfactant in Personal Cleansers: A key foaming agent in sulfate-based shampoos, body washes, and facial cleansers.
• Cosmetic & Skincare Formulations: Used in bath products, shaving creams, and makeup removers for its mildness and rich lather.
• Industrial & Institutional Cleaners: Employed in light-duty liquid detergents and all-purpose cleaners where mildness is a factor.
• Foam Booster & Stabilizer: Enhances and stabilizes foam in various surfactant blends and syndet bars.

Quality Control

Our Ammonium Myreth Sulfate is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch is tested to ensure it meets precise specifications for active matter, sulfate content, pH, and color. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting these parameters are available upon request to support your quality assurance protocols.

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 affect product performance.
