Sodium lauroyl methyl isethionate
Description
Sodium lauroyl methyl isethionate (CAS 928663-45-0), commercially available as Iselux LQ-CLR-SB and Iselux LQ-CLR-PE, is a mild anionic surfactant derived from coconut fatty acid.
It delivers effective cleansing and foam generation while maintaining compatibility with sensitive skin formulations. This makes it a preferred building block for premium personal care and household cleaning products.
In rinse-off personal care, it functions as the primary or co-surfactant in facial cleansers, body washes, and shampoos. It is ideal where low irritation and rich lather are both required.
Solid and liquid syndet bar formulations rely on it to replace traditional soap bases. This improves mildness and skin feel in finished products while maintaining high performance standards.
In home care, it contributes to the cleaning and foaming profile of dish soaps and surface cleaners. It is particularly useful where biodegradability is a strict formulation requirement.
Textile and paper processing operations use it as a dispersing and wetting agent. This helps to improve substrate penetration during various treatment stages in industrial manufacturing.
Sodium lauroyl methyl isethionate is supplied as a clear to slightly hazy liquid. It is available in cosmetic-grade and technical-grade specifications to serve both personal care and industrial buyers.
Standard concentrations in commercial liquid forms typically fall in the 30–35% active matter range. This ensures ease of handling and stability during the formulation and production process.
