DESCRIPTION

Sodium lauryl sulfoacetate (SLSA): a mild powder surfactant with lots of foam. Used in bath bombs, solid shampoo, cleansing bars and bubble baths.

Description

A powder surfactant for natural cosmetics; its large molecule does not penetrate the skin. It is a mild surfactant that is very well tolerated by the skin and produces abundant foam.

Properties
  • Primary/secondary surfactant
  • Detergent
  • Foaming agent
  • Milder on the skin than ethoxylated alcohol sulfates
  • Wetting agent
  • Stable in hard water
  • Emulsifier
  • A replacement for soap whenever there is sensitivity to it
Health effects

Moderately to slightly toxic if swallowed (LD50 = 700 mg/kg). The product causes moderate skin irritation at 70 % concentration and minimal or no eye irritation at 3 %.

Practical formulation guide
Dose:
  • Shampoo 1-3%
  • Shower gel up to 10 %
  • Bath bombs 10–15 %
How to use and incorporate: Add the surfactant to the water (not the water onto the surfactant) with slow stirring to avoid excess foam. If solid or paste, melt or dissolve first in warm water. Adjust the pH at the end (5–6.5 for facial and hair products) and the viscosity with salt (sodium chloride 0.5–2 %) or a thickener.
Formulation tips:
  • Combining a primary surfactant with a secondary one (betaine, glucoside, amphoteric) improves mildness, foam and viscosity.
  • Anionic and cationic surfactants may be incompatible; check clarity and stability when combining them.
  • Before scaling up, make a pilot batch and run a stability test (cycles at 4 / 25 / 45 °C/39 / 77 / 113 °F for 4 weeks, checking odor, color, pH, viscosity and separation) in the final packaging.
Compatibility: Compatible with other anionic, amphoteric and nonionic surfactants, conditioning polymers and most extracts and fragrances.
Storage: Storage and handling Take the usual safety precautions (safety glasses, dust mask and gloves) when handling. Avoid contact with eyes and with the material. use in a well-ventilated area. Store in sealed containers in a cool, dry place to prevent caking and color deterioration. Workplace exposure: control occupational exposure with personal protective equipment and good workplace practices.
Precautions: Irritating to the eyes in concentrated form: wear safety glasses and gloves. Do not ingest. See the Safety Data Sheet.
Technical information for formulators: This sheet describes industrial uses of the raw material in the development of cosmetic products. It is not an efficacy claim for any finished product. The person responsible for the formulation must validate the concentration, compatibility and claims of their product in accordance with applicable regulations.
