NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. is dedicated to providing formulators with high-quality ingredients that drive product innovation. Sodium Lauryl Ether Sulfate (SLES) 70% is one such ingredient, possessing a unique set of scientific properties that make it indispensable in various personal care and household cleaning products.

At its core, SLES 70% is an anionic surfactant. This classification is key to understanding its functionality. The molecule consists of a long hydrocarbon chain (hydrophobic) and a sulfate group (hydrophilic), with an added ether linkage. This amphiphilic nature allows it to orient itself at interfaces, such as between oil and water, dramatically reducing surface tension. This reduction is what enables its excellent wetting, emulsifying, and dispersing capabilities. For formulators, this means SLES 70% can effectively solubilize oils and dirt in aqueous systems, allowing them to be easily washed away.

The properties of SLES 70% are particularly advantageous for creating lather. It is renowned for its ability to produce a rich, stable, and creamy foam. This characteristic is highly desirable in consumer products like shampoos and body washes, as foam is often perceived as an indicator of cleaning efficacy. The stability of the foam, even in the presence of oils and hard water, is a testament to its superior performance.

Regarding detergency, SLES 70% is highly effective at removing greasy and oily soils. Its mechanism involves encapsulating dirt particles, making them soluble in water. This makes it a primary surfactant of choice for rinse-off products where a thorough cleanse is paramount. The anionic surfactant nature also means it is compatible with a wide array of non-ionic and amphoteric surfactants, offering formulators significant flexibility in creating complex formulations with synergistic effects.

Furthermore, SLES 70% exhibits good biodegradability, a critical factor for formulators aiming to develop environmentally responsible products. Its relative mildness compared to other sulfates, when properly formulated, contributes to its appeal in sensitive skin formulations. The ability to achieve high cleansing and foaming performance with reduced irritation potential is a significant advantage.

For product formulators seeking reliable and versatile ingredients, understanding the science behind SLES 70% is key. NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. provides SLES 70% that adheres to strict quality specifications, ensuring that formulators can consistently achieve desired product performance. Whether you are developing a new shampoo or a heavy-duty cleaner, SLES 70% offers a scientifically sound solution.
