Sodium lauryl ether sulfate is a common surfactant or detergent found in many personal care and cleaning products such as shampoos, soaps, toothpaste, and laundry detergents. It is an anionic surfactant made from lauryl alcohol and ethylene oxide, which means it possesses a negatively charged ion in its chemical structure. It works by reducing the surface tension of water, making it easier to disseminate and penetrate. This contributes to the formation of foam and bubbles, which are frequently connected with a product's cleaning power. SLES is good at removing grime, oil, and grease from surfaces and is well-known for producing thick, rich lather.
SLES (sodium lauryl ether sulphate) is a white or yellowish liquid or powder with a faint odour. C12H25O(CH2CH2O)nSO3Na is its chemical formula, where n is the number of ethylene oxide molecules. SLES has a molecular weight that varies with the length of the ethylene oxide chain but normally ranges from 376 to 408 g/mol. It is water and ethanol soluble, with a pH range of 6.5-9.5. It withstands high temperatures without disintegrating and is relatively stable in acidic and alkaline solutions. However, certain oxidising chemicals, such as hydrogen peroxide and sodium hypochlorite, can break down the molecule and diminish its efficiency.
SLES is found in a variety of personal care products, including shampoos, soaps, and toothpaste. With rising global demand for personal care products, particularly in emerging nations, the need for SLES is likely to rise further. Increasing cleanliness and hygiene awareness: With the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and other health concerns, there is a greater emphasis on cleaning and hygiene. SLES is widely utilised in household cleaning solutions as well as industrial and institutional cleaning applications, making it a necessary component in maintaining clean and sanitary settings.
Manufacturing technology advancements have made it easier and less expensive to create SLES on a wide scale, resulting in increased availability and cheaper costs for consumers. While SLES is a frequently used chemical, there is an increasing trend toward natural and organic substances in personal care products. As a result, alternatives to SLES, such as plant-based surfactants, have emerged, posing a competitive threat to the SLES business.
