Характеристики

Ключевые свойства и преимущества

Superior Foaming: Produces a rich, dense, and stable lather, which is a primary consumer requirement for cleansing products.
Enhanced Mildness: The ethoxylation step ensures the molecule is gentler on the skin and scalp compared to non-ethoxylated sulfates.
Hard Water Stability: Exhibits high resistance to divalent ions (calcium and magnesium), maintaining cleansing power in hard water conditions.
Viscosity Control: Responds exceptionally well to the addition of electrolytes (such as Sodium Chloride), allowing formulators to easily adjust product thickness.
Synergistic Compatibility: Works effectively in combination with other anionic, non-ionic, and amphoteric surfactants like Cocamidopropyl Betaine.
Biodegradability: Readily biodegradable under aerobic conditions, reducing its environmental footprint.

Спецификации

Технические особенности

Chemical Structure: CH₃(CH₂)₁₁(OCH₂CH₂)_nOSO₃Na, where ‘n’ typically represents 1 to 3 moles of ethylene oxide.
Active Matter Content: Standard grades include 70% (paste) and 28% (liquid) active surfactant concentrations.
pH Stability: Most stable in the pH range of 7.0 to 9.0; susceptible to hydrolysis in acidic environments below pH 4.0.
1,4-Dioxane Limits: Modern manufacturing utilizes vacuum stripping to ensure 1,4-dioxane byproducts remain within strict regulatory safety limits (typically <30 ppm or <10 ppm).
HLB Value: Possesses a high Hydrophilic-Lipophilic Balance, indicating strong water-solubility and oil-in-water emulsification capabilities.
Anionic Nature: Carries a negative charge, providing excellent removal of particulate soils and sebum.
