Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS)

Sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS), also known as sodium laurilsulfate or sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS or NaDS), is an anionic surfactant widely used as an emulsifying cleaning agent in many cleaning and hygiene products. SLS is a highly effective surfactant that is used in any task requiring the removal of oily stains and residues. For example, it is found in higher concentrations in industrial products including engine degreasers, floor cleaners, and car wash soaps. It is used in lower concentrations with toothpastes, shampoos, and shaving foams. It is an important component in bubble bath formulations for its thickening effect and its ability to create a lather.
