Disodium sulfoacetate

CAS: 5462-60-2

Overview

Disodium sulfoacetate (CAS 5462-60-2 ), also known as sulfoacetic acid disodium salt, is an anionic surfactant salt used across personal care, cleaning, and industrial processing applications.

It functions as a surface-active agent, emulsifier, and dispersant, helping formulators achieve stable, low-irritation systems with effective soil removal for various commercial products.

In personal care formulations, it acts as a mild surfactant and co-emulsifier in shampoos, body washes, and facial cleansers where reduced irritation is a priority for the consumer.

Home care and industrial cleaning products use it to boost degreasing performance and improve soil dispersion on hard surfaces. Textile and leather processing operations incorporate it as a wetting agent.

This chemical ensures uniform dye penetration and consistent surface treatment during manufacturing. Paper manufacturing also draws on its dispersing properties to support pulp processing and coating formulations.

Disodium sulfoacetate is typically supplied as an aqueous solution, with concentration levels varying by manufacturer and intended application. Both technical-grade and specialty-grade material are available.

The choice of grade depends on whether the end use is industrial processing or personal care formulation. Buyers should confirm compliance with relevant regional cosmetic ingredient regulations.

When sourcing this material, it is important to request appropriate documentation. This ensures the product meets the necessary safety and performance requirements for your specific industrial application.
