Description

Sodium Lauroyl Ethylenediamine Triacetate is a high-performance, biodegradable chelating agent and surfactant derived from renewable resources. This compound is valued for its excellent sequestering power for multivalent metal ions, particularly calcium and magnesium, under a wide range of pH conditions. It is essential for formulators in the personal care, home care, and industrial cleaning sectors seeking effective, mild, and environmentally considerate ingredients to replace traditional phosphates and EDTA derivatives.

Application

• Personal Care Products: Used as a gentle chelating agent and foam booster in shampoos, body washes, facial cleansers, and liquid soaps.
• Home Care & Detergents: Enhances the cleaning efficiency of laundry detergents, dishwashing liquids, and all-purpose cleaners by inactivating water hardness ions.
• Industrial & Institutional (I&I) Cleaning: A key component in formulations for hard surface cleaners, dairy cleaners, and food processing sanitation where effective chelation and biodegradability are required.
• Cosmetic & Toiletry Formulations: Serves as a stabilizer and sequestrant in creams, lotions, and other emulsion-based products to protect integrity and shelf life.
• Textile & Pulp Processing: Acts as a chelant in bleaching baths, dyeing processes, and pulp treatment to improve process efficiency and product quality.
• Agricultural & Water Treatment: Employed in micronutrient delivery systems and as a scale inhibitor in certain water treatment applications.

Quality Control

Our Sodium Lauroyl Ethylenediamine Triacetate is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Every batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure it meets precise specifications for identity, purity, and performance. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting key parameters such as assay, pH, and moisture content are provided to guarantee consistent quality and supply reliability for your production needs.

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); the container must be kept tightly sealed after initial opening to prevent caking or degradation due to moisture absorption.
