Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS)

Applications

Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS), also known as Sodium dodecyl sulfate, is a widely used surfactant in cleaning products, cosmetics, and personal care products. The sodium lauryl sulfate formula is a highly effective anionic surfactant used to remove oily stains and residues, its used in many self care products, like soaps, laundry detergents, body washes , face washes and shampoos. SLS is also a foaming agent, Many of these products use SLS to give a foaming action during the cleaning process. Sodium lauryl sulfate’s ability to break down oil and grease lends itself well to industrial products. You can find it in household cleaning products as well as engine cleaners and industrial-strength soaps.
