Sodium oleth sulfate

Sodium oleth sulfate (CAS 27233-34-7 ) is an ethoxylated anionic surfactant derived from oleyl alcohol, supplied as an aqueous solution for use across personal care and industrial cleaning markets.

It functions as a primary or co-surfactant, delivering foaming, emulsification, and detergency across a broad range of formulation types. In personal care, it is used as a base surfactant in shampoos.

It is frequently utilized in body washes and facial cleansers where milder skin compatibility compared to standard alkyl sulfates is a formulation priority for the manufacturer and end user.

Home care and industrial cleaning products incorporate it into liquid detergents and hard-surface cleaners to boost soil removal and foam stability. Textile processors use it as a scouring and wetting agent.

This chemical helps to remove oils and sizing agents from fiber substrates ahead of dyeing. In emulsion-based formulations, it supports stable oil-in-water systems in rinse-off and leave-on product formats.

The product is typically supplied as an aqueous solution, with active matter concentrations commonly in the 25–35% range. Grades are available to cosmetic and personal care specifications for various uses.

Technical-grade material is offered for industrial cleaning and textile applications. Packaging ranges from drums to intermediate bulk containers (IBCs) for larger procurement volumes and logistics.
