Frequently Asked Questions
What is Polyacrylamide/C13-14 (CAS 54116-08-4)?
CAS 54116-08-4 corresponds to sodium 2-(tridecyloxy)ethyl sulfate (C15H31NaO5S), an anionic alkyl ether sulfate surfactant. It functions as a foaming, wetting, and detergency agent in aqueous cleaning formulations. RawSource supplies it as an industrial surfactant.
What does this surfactant do in a formulation?
It is an anionic surfactant that lowers surface tension, builds foam in wash systems, aids wetting, and assists emulsification and dispersion of oily soils in aqueous cleaning formulations. Request the technical data for active content of a given grade.
Is this an anionic surfactant?
Yes. As an alkyl ether sulfate it carries a negatively charged sulfate head group, classifying it as an anionic organic surface-active agent (HS code 3402.39). Request a CoA for assay and active-matter specification.
What packaging and grades does RawSource supply?
This surfactant is typically supplied as an aqueous solution; available active content and packaging (drums, totes) depend on the lot. Confirm with your rep and request the SDS and CoA for documentation.
What is the cost of this surfactant in bulk?
Bulk pricing depends on active content, packaging, and volume. RawSource quotes to spec — request a current bulk quote with your target quantity.
What is the REACH and TSCA regulatory status of Sodium Tridecyl Ether Sulfate (Sodium C13 Alkyl Ether Sulfate)?
Sodium Tridecyl Ether Sulfate (Sodium C13 Alkyl Ether Sulfate) (CAS 54116-08-4) is listed as Active on the U.S. EPA TSCA Inventory; its REACH registration status is not determined from the public ECHA registry.
