Quality Control

Our production of Sodium C10-16 Alkyl Sulfate adheres to stringent quality management systems. Each batch is tested against key parameters including active matter content, unsulfated matter, pH, and color to ensure consistency and performance. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting these results 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 when not in use to prevent caking and degradation. Keep away from strong acids and strong oxidizing agents.
