Application Of Sodium Lauryl Ether Sulfate In Shampoo

 Application Of Sodium Lauryl Ether Sulfate In Shampoo


The main surfactant used in shampoos is to impart a shampoo cleansing action through the washing process. There are many types of such surfactants, but mainly anionic surfactants. Nowadays, the amount of ammonium laureth sulfate (AESA) and (K12A) is also very large. The ammonium salt has a high foaming rate and is less irritating than the sodium salt. Some large brands use ammonium salt as the main surfactant. Sodium laureth ether sulfate can be used in products for skin and sodium sulphate can be used in soap making.

 

Currently, the most commonly used shampoo main surfactants are lauryl ether sulfates (abbreviated as AES or SLES) and lauryl sulfates (AS or SLS), sometimes a mixture of the two. China generally uses sodium laureth polyoxyethylene ether sulfate and ammonium laureth polyoxyethylene ether sulfate, but mainly sodium salt.

 

The advantages of sodium salt

1. The sodium salt is less dependent on the pH of the system.

2. Sodium salt synthesis is easier and more economical.

3. The detergency and foaming power of the sodium salt is slightly stronger than that of the ammonium salt, and the formulation amount may be slightly lower.

 

Therefore, sodium lauryl ether sulfate is a very good surfactant choice in the shampoo making process.

Difference Between Sodium Laureth Sulfate And Sodium Lauryl Sulfate

Sodium laureth ether sulfate  (SLS) and sodium lauryl ether sulfate (SLES) are surfactants that play a role in foaming products. It is widely believed that the foam produced by a product is its performance. The composition of SLS and SLES reduces the surface tension of water. They can also be used as dispersants to properly mix spices and body spray. SLS and SLES can also be used in a variety of personal care products such as soap, shampoo, shower gel, toothpaste and other foaming products. SLS and SLES are also added to moisturizing lotions and sunscreens because of these properties. The difference between SLS and SLES is in the manufacturing process. SLS undergo a process called ethoxylation. And then you get SLES. Why do we have this ethoxylation process? Because SLS has some mild irritation on the skin, such as dry. The manufactured SLES are more gentle and do not irritate the skin. Many manufacturers do not use SLS because it is irritating. SLES should be softer o...
