Primary Applications of Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS)
SLS's powerful surfactant properties make it an indispensable ingredient across a broad spectrum of consumer and industrial applications:
Personal Care Products:
Widely used as a primary surfactant in shampoos, conditioners, toothpastes, facial cleansers, body washes, and liquid hand soaps. It's valued for creating rich, abundant lather and effectively removing dirt and oils from skin and hair. In toothpastes, it helps disperse ingredients and create foam for cleaning.
Household & Laundry Detergents:
A significant component in formulations for laundry detergents (powders and liquids), automatic dishwashing detergents, dishwashing liquids, and all-purpose household cleaners. Its strong detergency and foaming power ensure effective cleaning of fabrics, dishes, and surfaces.
Industrial & Institutional Cleaners:
Used in formulations for heavy-duty industrial degreasers, floor cleaners, car wash products, and other specialized cleaning solutions where powerful degreasing and cleaning action are required.
Emulsifier and Wetting Agent:
Acts as an effective emulsifier in various formulations, helping to mix oil and water-based components, and as a wetting agent to improve the spreading of liquids on surfaces.
Laboratory and Research Applications:
In biochemistry and molecular biology, Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate (SDS) is a common component in SDS-PAGE (Polyacrylamide Gel Electrophoresis) for denaturing proteins, and in various cell lysis buffers.
Other Industrial Applications:
Found in some textile processing aids, emulsifiable concentrates for agrochemicals, and as a dispersant in certain industrial processes.
