ROSULfan®A70 MB (Ammonium Lauryl Sulfate)

Thanks to its properties, ROSULfan A70 can be used as the main component of cosmetic cleaning products. It is an excellent component for shampoos, body wash fluids, shower gels and liquid soaps.

The main advantage of the product is the retention of cleaning and foaming properties even in the presence of excess sebum. ROSULfan A70 exhibits considerably higher resistance to hard water, and at the same time lower irritant and drying effects as compared to the commonly used ingredient called Sodium Lauryl Sulfate.

When ROSULfan A70 is used in compositions including Sodium Lauryl Sulfate and/or Sodium Laureth Sulfate, it significantly reduces their irritant effect. This is of particular importance for the production of mild shampoos recommended for people with sensitive skin prone to irritation.

ROSULfan A70 is perfectly suitable for other industrial applications. In the construction industry it is used as a component of agents reducing the weight of plasterboards and an addition to aeration and plasticizing admixtures.

In emulsion polymerization, ROSULfan A70 ensures excellent stabilisation of polymer dispersions in lower pH ranges. Its application enables control of the particle size, including acrylic, styrene-acrylic systems, vinyl acetate homo- and copolymers, VaE dispersions and PVC emulsions.

The product is approved for use as an indirect food additive based on the lists published by the U.S. Food and Drugs Agency (FDA).
