  • Applications

    Sodium oleoyl sarcosinate is commonly used as a mild anionic surfactant in cosmetics and personal care products, such as shampoos, body washes, and facial cleansers, delivering cleansing performance with reduced irritation. It also functions as an emulsifier and stabilizer in cosmetic formulations, aiding oil dispersion and maintaining product texture. In household and industrial cleaning products, it serves as a gentle detergent component or co-surfactant, improving foaming and cleaning performance. Additionally, it can be used as an intermediate in the synthesis of other surfactants and as an ingredient in formulations involving emulsions, polymers, or coatings, depending on technical requirements and local regulations.
