Usage

General Description

Poly(oxy-1,2-ethanediyl), .alpha.-sulfo-.omega.-hydroxy-, C16-18-alkyl ethers, sodium salts is a chemical compound commonly used in the production of personal care products such as shampoos, body washes, and household cleaning products. It is a surfactant that acts as a cleansing agent, emulsifier, and foaming agent. The compound is composed of a polyethylene glycol backbone, alkyl chains ranging from 16 to 18 carbon atoms, and sodium salt groups. These properties contribute to its ability to dissolve in water and oil, making it effective in removing dirt and oils from surfaces and hair. Additionally, it has the ability to stabilize mixtures of water and oil, allowing for the formation of emulsions and the suspension of dirt and oils within the product.
