Sodium Lauryl Ether Sulfate (SLES) N70 is an anionic detergent and surfactant widely used in the production of personal care products such as soaps, shampoos, body washes, hand washes, liquid soaps, and toothpaste, as well as in home care products like detergents and washing powders. SLES is known for its highly effective foaming properties.
SLES is used in many cosmetic products for its excellent cleaning and emulsifying abilities. Industrially, it finds applications in the textile, printing, dyeing, oil, and leather industries as a dyeing agent, cleaner, foaming agent, and degreasing agent.
Sodium Lauryl Ether Sulphate - SLES is produced by the ethoxylation of dodecyl alcohol (Fatty Alcohol Ethoxylate 2EO), which is industrially derived from palm kernel oil or coconut oil.
SLES is a sulfate ester of lauryl alcohol and is widely used as a surfactant. Variants such as sodium lauryl sulfate, ammonium lauryl sulfate, and sodium lauryl sulfate are commonly found in shampoos.
Sodium Lauryl Ether Sulfate N70 is 100% derived from palm kernel oil or RBD coconut oil-based alcohol and is primarily used in personal and home care products such as shampoos, hand washes, body washes, detergents, and soaps.
Sodium Lauryl Ether Sulfate SLES N70 is from 100% Natural Tropical Vegetable Palm Kernel Oil and Coconut Oil origin and Kosher certified.

Sodium Lauryl Ether Sulfate (SLES) is a widely used surfactant and foaming agent found in many personal care and household products. It is a chemical compound produced by the ethoxylation of lauryl alcohol followed by sulfation. SLES is well-known for its ability to generate rich, stable foam, making it a common ingredient in products such as shampoos, shower gels, liquid soaps, and bubble baths.
SLES 70 is a highly concentrated form, derived from fatty alcohols of vegetable origin through ethoxylation and subsequent sulfation. Due to its high active surfactant content, it is especially suitable for producing concentrated end products.
Sodium Lauryl Ether Sulfate - SLES with outstanding detergency performance, Sodium Lauryl Ether Sulfate is widely used in the manufacture of liquid cleaning agents, technical cleaners, and light-duty liquid detergents. It exhibits excellent foaming properties and thickens easily when salt is added. SLES remains pumpable at room temperature and can be diluted efficiently using suitable mixing equipment.
Additionally, SLES serves as a fundamental surfactant in cosmetic cleansing formulations like hair shampoos, shower gels, foam baths, and liquid soaps. It also functions as a foam booster, foam stabilizer, viscosity enhancer, and softener in various household and personal care products, contributing to better skin and hair care.
SLES effectively cleanses hair by removing dirt, oils, and impurities. It also produces a rich lather, enhancing the user’s perception of cleanliness.
Used for its cleansing and foaming properties, SLES provides a pleasant, foamy texture in body washes and shower gels.
Many liquid hand soaps and dishwashing detergents incorporate SLES for its excellent foaming and cleaning abilities.
In certain toothpaste formulations, SLES creates a foamy texture and helps disperse the paste evenly throughout the mouth.
SLES enhances bubble formation, contributing to a luxurious and enjoyable bathing experience.
SLES is a key ingredient in dishwashing detergents and all-purpose cleaners, valued for its ability to effectively remove grease and grime.
