Product Name

Sodium Lauryl Ether Sulfate

Description

Sodium Lauryl Ester Sulfate is a highly effective anionic surfactant, composed of 2-mole Sodium Lauryl Ether Sulfate. This versatile surfactant is an excellent substitute for sulfonates in car wash formulations, as it is compatible with high pH formulations. The advanced sulfation technology employed in its production ensures high clarity, low salt, and low color product. Also, surfactant offers moderate foaming and excellent soil emulsification properties, producing copious foam, and exhibiting outstanding wetting properties. It provides powerful, non-corrosive, and non-filming detergency, making it an ideal choice for a wide range of cleaning applications.
