General Description

S-hexadecyl hydrogen sulfurothioate, also known as sodium hexadecyl sulfurothioate, is a chemical compound with the molecular formula C16H33NaS. It is a type of sulfur-based surfactant that is commonly used in industrial and cosmetic applications as an emulsifier, foaming agent, and wetting agent. It is known for its ability to lower the surface tension of liquids, allowing them to spread more easily. Additionally, S-hexadecyl hydrogen sulfurothioate has antimicrobial properties and is often used in the production of anti-dandruff shampoos and personal care products. However, it is important to handle this chemical with caution as it can cause skin and eye irritation, and should be used according to safety guidelines.
