Sulfated surfactants personal care detergents

The applications of alcohol sulfates in consumer products depend on the alkyl chain and in some cases on the cation. Alcohol sulfates with alkyl chains 8 C1() are seldom used in consumer products except occasionally as hydrotropes in liquid detergent formulations. However, alcohol sulfates in the range C10-C18 are used in many commonly used formulations although other surfactants are generally added to enhance their properties. In some of these applications, particularly in shampoos, they compete with alcohol ether sulfates of the same alkyl chain distribution. The pattern of use of alcohol sulfates or alcohol ether sulfates in formulations varies with consumer personal care and laundry washing preferences in different cultural areas of the world. 

Sulfonation and sulfation processes are utilized in the production of wateT-soluble anionic surfactants as principal ingredients in formulated light-duty and heavy-duty detergents, liquid hand cleansers, general household and personal care products, and dental care products. Other commercially significant product applications include emulsifiers, lube additives, sweeteners, pesticides, medicinals. ion-exchange resins, dyes and pigments.

Alkyl ether sulfates (AES), which are the sulfuric add monoesters of alfcoxylated alcohols, are the most widely used surfactants in detergent personal care products. They are mainly encountered in liquid formulations such as shower gels, bath foams, and shampoos. Their chemical formula is as follows ... 

Alkyl sulfates are still used in cosmetics and personal care areas (e.g., DEA lauryl sulfate in shampoos). They are also used in combination with other surfactants to improve the foaming characteristics of detergent systems.
