Poly(oxy-1,2-ethanediyl), α-sulfo-ω-hydroxy-, C11-14-isoalkyl ethers, C13-rich, sodium salts

Description:

Poly(oxy-1,2-ethanediyl), α-sulfo-ω-hydroxy-, C11-14-isoalkyl ethers, C13-rich, sodium salts, commonly referred to as a type of alkyl ether sulfate, is a surfactant characterized by its amphiphilic nature, which allows it to interact with both water and oils. This compound typically exhibits excellent foaming, wetting, and emulsifying properties, making it useful in various applications, particularly in personal care products, detergents, and industrial cleaning agents. The presence of the sulfonate group contributes to its water solubility and enhances its surface activity. Additionally, the C11-14 isoalkyl chain length provides a balance between hydrophobic and hydrophilic characteristics, optimizing its performance in formulations. As a sodium salt, it is generally stable and can be easily incorporated into aqueous systems. Safety data indicates that it is biodegradable, which is favorable for environmental considerations. However, like many surfactants, it should be handled with care to avoid irritation to skin and eyes. Overall, this compound is valued for its effectiveness in enhancing the performance of cleaning and personal care products.
