Description

Natriumalkyl(C8-C20)-Sulfate is a high-purity anionic surfactant belonging to the sodium alkyl sulfate family. This versatile compound is valued for its excellent foaming, wetting, and emulsifying properties in aqueous systems. It is a critical raw material for manufacturers in the personal care, industrial cleaning, and textile processing sectors seeking reliable and consistent performance.

Application

• Personal Care Formulations: Primary surfactant in shampoos, body washes, liquid soaps, and bubble baths for its rich lather and mild cleansing profile.
• Industrial & Institutional (I&I) Cleaners: Key component in heavy-duty degreasers, floor cleaners, and vehicle wash formulations for effective soil removal.
• Textile Processing: Used as a wetting agent, scouring aid, and emulsifier in fiber treatment and dyeing processes.
• Emulsion Polymerization: Serves as an effective emulsifier and stabilizer in the production of synthetic latexes, such as acrylics and styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR).
• Agricultural Adjuvants: Incorporated into pesticide and herbicide formulations to enhance spreading and adhesion on plant surfaces.
• Household Detergents: Found in various liquid and powder detergent products for laundry and dishwashing applications.
