Description

Sodium Isodecyl Sulphate is a high-purity anionic surfactant derived from isodecyl alcohol. This compound is valued for its excellent wetting, emulsifying, and foaming properties in aqueous systems. It serves as a critical ingredient for formulators in the personal care, industrial cleaning, and textile processing industries, where consistent performance and reliable supply are paramount.

Application

• Personal Care Formulations: Acts as a primary or secondary surfactant in shampoos, body washes, and facial cleansers for its mildness and rich lather.
• Industrial & Institutional (I&I) Cleaners: Used in heavy-duty degreasers, floor cleaners, and vehicle wash formulations for its effective wetting and emulsification of oils.
• Textile Processing: Employed as a wetting agent and detergent in scouring, dyeing, and finishing baths to ensure uniform processing.
• Emulsion Polymerization: Serves as an emulsifier and stabilizer in the production of synthetic latexes for paints, coatings, and adhesives.
• Agricultural Adjuvants: Enhances the spreading and sticking of pesticides and herbicides on plant surfaces.
• Household Cleaners: A key component in liquid dish soaps, all-purpose cleaners, and hard surface cleaners for its cleaning efficacy.
