Description

Natriumalkyl(C8-C20)-Sulfate is a versatile anionic surfactant belonging to the alkyl sulfate family, specifically sodium alkyl sulfates with chain lengths ranging from C8 to C20. This compound is valued for its excellent foaming, wetting, and emulsifying properties, making it a critical component in formulating high-performance cleaning and personal care products. It is essential for manufacturers in the detergent, cosmetic, and industrial cleaning sectors who require a reliable and effective surfactant base.

Application

• Detergent & Cleaning Formulations: Primary surfactant in liquid dish soaps, laundry detergents, and all-purpose cleaners for its strong grease-cutting and foaming action.
• Personal Care Products: Key foaming agent in shampoos, body washes, bubble baths, and hand soaps.
• Industrial & Institutional (I&I) Cleaners: Used in formulations for hard surface cleaners, degreasers, and vehicle wash products.
• Textile Processing: Acts as a wetting agent and emulsifier in textile scouring and finishing operations.
• Emulsion Polymerization: Serves as an emulsifier and stabilizer in the production of synthetic latexes and polymers.
• Agricultural Adjuvants: Used in pesticide and herbicide formulations to enhance spreading and wetting on plant surfaces.
