Description

Disodium laureth sulfosuccinate (CAS 40754-59-4 ) is a mild anionic surfactant used across personal care and industrial formulations for its foaming, emulsifying, and cleansing performance. Unlike harsher sulfate-based surfactants, it delivers effective surface activity with a gentler profile. This makes it a preferred choice in formulations targeting sensitive skin or delicate substrates. In personal care, it functions as a primary or co-surfactant in shampoos, body washes, and baby care products where mildness and stable foam are both required. Textile and leather processors use it as a wetting and scouring agent to ensure uniform dye penetration and soil removal during wet processing. In coating and adhesive formulations, it supports emulsification and dispersion stability of polymer systems during manufacture. Paper industry applications include surface treatment and process aids where controlled foaming and wetting are critical to sheet quality. The chemical structure allows for high compatibility with other surfactants, enhancing the overall performance of complex blends. Disodium laureth sulfosuccinate is typically supplied as an aqueous solution, with active concentrations commonly ranging from 30% to 40%. It is available in cosmetic-grade and technical-grade specifications to suit personal care and industrial end uses respectively. Bulk supply is standard in drums or intermediate bulk containers (IBCs). Our material meets rigorous quality benchmarks to ensure consistency across batches.
