Request SDS →Sodium PPG-16/PEG-2 lauryl ether sulfate is an anionic polymeric ether-sulfate surfactant (INCI name), supplied as an aqueous solution. As an alkyl ether sulfate it provides foam, detergency, and wetting in personal-care and household cleansing formulations.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is another name for Sodium PPG-16/PEG-2 Lauryl Ether Sulfate?
It is identified by its INCI name, Sodium PPG-16/PEG-2 Lauryl Ether Sulfate, a polymeric alkyl ether-sulfate surfactant. It is a distinct, more highly alkoxylated material than standard sodium laureth sulfate. Verify the exact INCI and specification on the CoA for your grade.
Is Sodium PPG-16/PEG-2 Lauryl Ether Sulfate the same as Sodium Lauryl Sulfate?
No. Sodium Lauryl Sulfate is a non-ethoxylated alkyl sulfate, whereas this material is a propoxylated/ethoxylated (PPG/PEG) lauryl ether sulfate. The PPG-16/PEG-2 chain changes its foam, mildness, and solubility profile. Confirm the INCI name when specifying, as they are not interchangeable.
What is Sodium PPG-16/PEG-2 Lauryl Ether Sulfate used for?
As an anionic ether-sulfate surfactant it provides foam, detergency, and wetting in personal-care and household cleansing formulations. It is also used as a wetting agent that lowers surface tension in aqueous systems. RawSource supplies it as an aqueous solution in bulk.
What is the active surfactant content of this product?
It is supplied as an aqueous solution, and the active-surfactant concentration is stated on the CoA for each lot rather than assumed. Tell us your required actives level when requesting a quote and we will confirm the matching grade. This affects dosing in your formulation.
What bulk packaging is Sodium PPG-16/PEG-2 Lauryl Ether Sulfate available in?
As a liquid surfactant it ships in drums, totes, or IBCs matched to your order volume. Request a quote with your target quantity and RawSource will return delivered pricing with a CoA and SDS.
