Monoethanolamine-lauryl sulfate

Description:
Monoethanolamine-lauryl sulfate, with the CAS number 4722-98-9, is an organic compound that functions primarily as a surfactant. It is derived from lauryl sulfate, a fatty acid salt, and monoethanolamine, an amino alcohol. This compound exhibits amphiphilic properties, meaning it has both hydrophilic (water-attracting) and hydrophobic (water-repelling) characteristics, which makes it effective in reducing surface tension in aqueous solutions. Monoethanolamine-lauryl sulfate is commonly used in personal care products, such as shampoos and body washes, due to its ability to create lather and enhance the cleansing properties of formulations. Additionally, it can act as a mild emulsifier, stabilizing mixtures of oil and water. The compound is generally considered to be biodegradable, which is favorable for environmental considerations. However, like many surfactants, it may cause skin irritation in sensitive individuals, so formulations containing this ingredient often include conditioning agents to mitigate potential adverse effects. Overall, its versatility and effectiveness make it a valuable component in various cosmetic and cleaning products.
