Applications
Docusate sodium is an anionic surfactant used as an emulsifier, wetting agent, and dispersant in cosmetics and personal care products and household cleaners; it also serves as a surface-active additive in coatings and inks to improve dispersion and wetting; in the polymers/plastics sector it acts as a processing aid and emulsifying additive; in pharmaceuticals it is used as an excipient or wetting agent in formulations; and in agriculture it may be used as an adjuvant to improve spray coverage and adhesion on foliage.
