Widely used in personal and home care products, SLS effectively removes dirt and oils, making it a key ingredient in shampoos, body washes, soaps, and toothpaste. It creates rich lather and enhances the spreadability of formulations. SLS is compatible with various additives and performs well across a wide pH range.
