Alternative names: Sodium ethoxylated alkyl sulfate, sodium fatty alcohol ether sulfate, AES. It is a colorless, white or light yellow viscous liquid with a typical soap-like odor, an alkaline anionic surfactant.
It is highly soluble in water and has excellent decontamination, emulsifying, foaming properties and hard water resistance. Its mild washing nature will not damage the skin. Please note when in use: In the absence of viscosity regulators, if AES is diluted to a water solution containing 30% or 60% active substances, it often results in a highly viscous gel. To avoid this phenomenon, the correct approach is to add the highly active product to the specified amount of water and stir it simultaneously. Do not add water to highly active raw materials, otherwise it may lead to the formation of gel.
