  • Applications

    Sodium Myreth Sulfate (CAS 25446-80-4) is an anionic surfactant used as a cleansing, foaming, and emulsifying agent across multiple industries. In cosmetics and personal care, it provides mild cleansing and rich foam in shampoos, body washes, and cleansers. In household products, it serves as a detergent and foaming agent in dish liquids and multi-purpose cleaners. In industrial manufacturing, it is used in cleaning formulations and machine cleaning formulations to improve wetting and dispersion. In coatings and inks, it acts as a surfactant to improve substrate wetting and pigment dispersion. In polymers and plastics, it can function as an emulsifier and surfactant in latex formulations to stabilize emulsions and aid dispersion. Subject to local regulations and formulation limits.
