Sodium 2-ethylhexyl sulfate
Description
Sodium 2-ethylhexyl sulfate (CAS 126-92-1 ), also known commercially as Tergemist, is an anionic surfactant used across industrial and personal care applications. It functions primarily as an emulsifier, dispersant, and wetting agent. This chemical enables uniform mixing of incompatible phases in aqueous systems. In textile and leather processing, it improves dye penetration and ensures even distribution of treatment chemicals across fiber surfaces. Personal care formulators incorporate it into shampoos, body washes, and cleansing products where controlled foaming and emulsification are required. It is valued for its stability and performance in various formulations. Water treatment operations use it as a dispersant to stabilize suspensions and prevent scale or particulate buildup in process water. This helps maintain the efficiency of industrial cooling and heating systems. In printing and packaging, it supports ink dispersion and substrate wetting, improving adhesion and print uniformity on treated surfaces. This ensures high-quality results on a variety of different materials. Sodium 2-ethylhexyl sulfate is typically supplied as an aqueous solution, with active content concentrations commonly available in the 35–40% range. This concentration allows for easy handling and dilution. Technical grade is the standard offering for industrial applications, with product specifications varying by supplier to address purity and pH requirements. It meets the necessary criteria for heavy industrial use. Bulk liquid supply in drums or IBC containers is the norm for industrial procurement volumes. This ensures a steady supply for large-scale manufacturing and processing facilities across the globe. Contact us for supply of Sodium 2-ethylhexyl sulfate Request Quote
