Description

Texapon (SLES), also known as Sodium Lauryl Ether Sulfate, is a surfactant commonly used in the personal care and cosmetic industries for its ability to cleanse, foam, and emulsify. It is a milder derivative of Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS), where ethoxylation (the addition of ethylene oxide) reduces its harshness. Texapon is derived from natural fats, such as coconut or palm oil, and is primarily used in shampoos, body washes, facial cleansers, and other cleansing products.

Texapon is widely used for its excellent foaming properties, making it effective in removing oils, dirt, and impurities from the skin and hair. It is a highly effective and inexpensive surfactant, offering both cleaning and conditioning properties. While it may not be as gentle as some other surfactants, it is still considered a suitable option for products that require strong cleansing action without excessive irritation.

Texapon (SLES) is commonly used in a wide range of cosmetic formulations, including personal care and household products, due to its versatile and effective cleansing properties.
