Uses:

Sodium Lauryl Ether Sulfate (SLES) — Cosmetic Grade

Name: China Factory Supply High Quality Best Price Sodium Lauryl Ether Sulfate CAS 68585-34-2 with good service
Brand: Wuhan Fortuna Chemical Co., Ltd.

Sodium Lauryl Ether Sulfate (SLES), also known as Sodium Laureth Sulfate or AES (Alkyl Ether Sulfate), is an anionic surfactant derived from the ethoxylation and sulfation of lauryl alcohol (typically sourced from coconut oil or palm kernel oil).

CAS No.: 68585-34-2

General Formula: RO(CH₂CH₂O)ₙSO₃Na (where R = C₁₂–C₁₅ alkyl, n = 2–3 ethylene oxide units)

Appearance: White to pale yellow viscous paste or gel (70% active) / clear to light yellow liquid (28% active)

pH (1% solution): 7.0–9.5

Active Matter: Typically 70±2% or 28±1%

Cosmetic grade SLES is distinguished by higher purity, lower impurity levels, and strict control of 1,4-dioxane residue (typically ≤10 ppm for premium grades, ≤30 ppm per Chinese regulations) compared to industrial grades.

Cosmetic Grade Uses

Personal Care Products (Primary Application)

SLES is one of the most widely used primary surfactants in rinse-off personal care formulations:

Product Category	Typical Active Content	Function
Shampoos	8–15%	Primary cleanser & foaming agent
Body Washes / Shower Gels	5–12%	Rich lather & cleansing
Facial Cleansers	2–5%	Gentle impurity removal
Bubble Baths	Variable	Luxurious foam generation
Liquid Hand Soaps	5–10%	Cleansing & foaming
Toothpaste	Variable	Foaming & dispersing agent

Functional Roles in Formulations

Cleansing / Detergency — Effectively removes sebum, dirt, and styling product buildup from hair and skin

Foaming — Generates abundant, stable, and creamy foam that consumers associate with effective cleaning

Emulsification — Helps blend oil and water phases in formulations

Wetting & Dispersing — Improves product spreadability and rinseability

Viscosity Building — When combined with salts (e.g., NaCl at 2–5%), SLES systems thicken significantly, enabling formulators to fine-tune product texture

Selling Points (Cosmetic Grade)

✅ Milder Than SLS

The ethoxylation process gives SLES a significantly lower irritation potential compared to its non-ethoxylated counterpart, Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS). This makes SLES suitable for sensitive skin formulations, baby care products, and daily-use cleansers — a key marketing and regulatory advantage.

✅ Superior Foaming Performance

SLES produces rich, stable, and fine-textured foam even in hard water conditions. The foaming volume is approximately 3× higher than many alternative surfactants, delivering the luxurious lather consumers expect.

✅ Strong Cleaning Efficacy

SLES delivers ~40% higher oil-removal efficiency compared to amino acid-based surfactants, making it ideal for deep-cleansing shampoos and oily skin formulations.

✅ Excellent Formulation Compatibility

SLES is compatible with a broad range of co-surfactants and additives:

Amphoteric surfactants (e.g., Cocamidopropyl Betaine) — to boost mildness and foam stability

Non-ionic surfactants (e.g., Lauryl Glucoside) — to further reduce irritation

Conditioning agents, moisturizers, thickeners, and fragrances

This versatility allows formulators to create complex, multi-benefit products with ease.

✅ Hard Water Resistance

SLES maintains its cleaning and foaming performance in hard water, ensuring consistent product performance across diverse geographic markets.

✅ Biodegradable & Environmentally Responsible

SLES is readily biodegradable (ISO 14593 certified, >85% degradation within 28 days), aligning with growing consumer and regulatory demand for sustainable ingredients.

✅ Cost-Effective

SLES offers an outstanding performance-to-cost ratio — raw material costs are approximately 1/5 that of betaine-type surfactants, making it an economically attractive primary surfactant for both mass-market and mid-range product lines.

✅ Regulatory Acceptance

SLES is approved for use in cosmetics across major regulatory frameworks:

US CIR: Safe at ≤50% in rinse-off products, ≤14% in leave-on products

EU SCCS: Approved with 1,4-dioxane residue ≤10 ppm

China: Listed in the Inventory of Used Cosmetic Ingredients with 1,4-dioxane ≤30 ppm

✅ Low 1,4-Dioxane Grades Available

Modern manufacturing processes (molecular distillation, vacuum stripping) can control 1,4-dioxane residuals to ≤10 ppm or even ≤5 ppm, meeting the strictest international standards and addressing consumer safety concerns.

✅ Multiple EO Grades for Tailored Performance

SLES 2EO — Finer foam, better salt-thickening response, lower dioxane risk → ideal for premium shampoos and facial cleansers

SLES 3EO — Higher foam volume, greater water solubility → ideal for body washes and liquid soaps

3EO + 1EO blends — Balanced properties for versatile formulations

Summary

Cosmetic grade SLES remains the workhorse anionic surfactant in the global personal care industry, commanding over 58% of the SLES market by grade (2024 data). Its winning combination of rich foaming, strong cleansing, mild irritation profile, broad compatibility, biodegradability, and cost efficiency makes it an indispensable ingredient for formulators developing shampoos, body washes, facial cleansers, and liquid soaps. The availability of low-dioxane, multi-EO-grade options further strengthens its position as a versatile and reliable raw material for cosmetic manufacturers worldwide.
