ROSULfan O is an anionic surfactant from the group of alkyl sulfates. The product is the sodium salt of n-octyl sulfate and is available as a 39-42%, low-viscosity aqueous solution from colourless to light yellow. This product shows moderate foaming properties, creating medium and poorly stable foams even in hard water. The foams obtained from ROSULfan O are characterised by a high degree of hydration (so-called wet foam) and a heterogeneous structure of bubbles. ROSULfan O also has a low tendency to gelation in electrolyte solutions, which eliminates the problems associated with local increase in viscosity, e.g. in dosing systems.
