Primary Applications of Potassium Lauryl Sulfate (KLS)
Potassium Lauryl Sulfate's mild yet effective surfactant properties make it a valuable ingredient in various applications:
Personal Care Products:
Increasingly used in gentle shampoos, facial cleansers for sensitive skin, mild body washes, and baby care products due to its potential for lower skin irritation compared to SLS while still providing good foaming and cleansing.
Specialty Detergents:
Formulated in specialty liquid detergents and cleaning solutions where a balance of effective cleaning and mildness is desired.
Biochemical Research:
Used in laboratory and research applications as a detergent for protein solubilization and as a component in electrophoresis buffers, similar to SDS but sometimes preferred for specific experimental conditions.
Emulsifier and Wetting Agent:
Can function as an emulsifier in certain formulations to help mix immiscible liquids and as a wetting agent to reduce surface tension.
Pharmaceutical Applications:
May find use in certain pharmaceutical formulations as a solubilizing or dispersing agent.
