Disodium lauryl sulfosuccinate

Disodium lauryl sulfosuccinate (CAS 26838-05-1 ) is a mild anionic surfactant used across personal care and cleaning formulations. Derived from succinic acid and lauryl alcohol, it delivers effective cleansing and foaming.

It offers a lower irritation profile than conventional sulfate surfactants, which is a key consideration for formulators targeting sensitive-skin positioning. In personal care, it functions as the primary or co-surfactant.

It is commonly found in shampoos, body washes, and facial cleansers where mildness is a formulation requirement. Baby care and dermatologically tested products rely on it to maintain cleansing performance.

The surfactant helps products meet low-irritation benchmarks while ensuring high performance. In household and industrial cleaning, it contributes to foam stability and soil removal in liquid detergents.

It is also utilized in hard-surface cleaners for its effective properties. Textile and leather processing applications use it as a wetting and dispersing agent to improve substrate penetration during wet processing.

Disodium lauryl sulfosuccinate is supplied as a white to off-white powder or as an aqueous paste. The active content typically ranges from 30% to 40% in paste form for various industrial uses.

Cosmetic-grade material conforming to standard purity specifications is the predominant commercial offering. Technical-grade variants are available for industrial cleaning and textile applications as needed.
