Sodium Fatty Alcohol Polyoxyethylene Ether Sulfate -CAS 9004-82-4
Liquid Sodium Fatty Alcohol Polyoxyethylene Ether Sulfate (AES) is a high-performance ethoxylated anionic surfactant synthesized from natural C12-C14 plant-based fatty alcohols through ethoxylation and sulfonation neutralization processes.
It adopts a unique dual hydrophilic and lipophilic molecular structure, perfectly balancing strong detergency and mild skin-friendliness. Compared with traditional SLS surfactants, it effectively reduces skin and eye irritation, features moderate degreasing power, no dry and tight after-wash feeling, and significantly improved comprehensive mildness.
The product has excellent high-density foaming performance with fast foaming speed and stable foam that is not easy to collapse. It possesses industry-leading hard water resistance and salt tolerance, maintaining stable decontamination and foaming effects in high-hardness water quality without precipitation or flocculation.
With outstanding emulsification, dispersion and thickening properties, it can be freely compounded with amino acid surfactants, betaines, nonionic and other anionic surfactants to optimize formula system stability and product texture. It has good biodegradability, stable batch quality and ultra-high cost performance, and is the most mainstream universal base raw material in the daily chemical industry.



Key Benefits
• Mild Upgraded Formula & Low Irritation: Optimized ethoxylated molecular structure, lower skin and eye irritation than traditional sulfate surfactants, suitable for long-term daily personal cleansing care.
• Dense Stable High Foam: Ultra-fast foaming speed, fine and elastic dense foam, strong foam stability, not easy to defoam, bringing full and delicate cleansing experience.
• Balanced Detergency & Non-tight After-wash: Powerful oil and dirt removal capacity without excessive degreasing, effectively protect skin sebum layer, fresh and moisturized after cleaning.
• Super Hard Water & Salt Resistance: Adapt to complex water quality environments, stable performance in high-hardness and high-salt water, no precipitation, strong environmental anti-interference ability.
• Multi-functional Integration & Easy Formulation: Integrates cleaning, foaming, emulsification and thickening functions, easy salt thickening, wide compatibility with all surfactant systems, simple formula debugging.
• High Cost-effective & Eco-friendly: Low dosage and high efficiency, stable batch quality, excellent biodegradability, meet global environmental protection standards and reduce overall formula production costs.
