Sodium Lauryl Ether Sulphate 2EO

Sodium Lauryl Ether Sulphate 2EO

PRODUCTION PROCESS TECHNOLOGY

SLES 2 EO is an aqueous concentrated 70 % active sodium lauryl ether sulfate derived from fatty alcohols, Description ethoxylated to an average of two moles, and sulfated Ethoxylated Lauryl Alcohol via continuous SO 3 process. SLES 2 EO is anionic surfactant, flowable paste, and is buffered with carbonate. SLES 2 EO is an excellent foamer regardless of water hardness. SLES 2 EO provides improved mildness over sodium lauryl sulfate without losing critical performance attributes, such as foaming and viscosity response. Its low skin irritation properties make it ideal for mild cleansing products. Products based on SLES 2 EO can be thickened with salts, betaines, or
amides, with the latter two also serving to enhance the foam. SLES 2 EO is compatible with familiar used opacifying and pearlizing agents, the formulator is afforded flexibility in developing the favorite product appearance.
