Sodium 2-ethylhexyl sulfate Properties

Overview of Sodium 2-ethylhexyl Sulfate

Sodium 2-ethylhexyl sulfonate is a light yellow liquid with the chemical formula C3Cl2N3O3Na. It is an effective disinfectant and bleach that, when dissolved in water, produces strong bactericidal and disinfectant effects. The pH value is neutral, with a cloud point of 40-50 ℃, and it is a non-ionic surfactant. Has good stability, resistant to strong acids and alkalis, resistant to sodium hypochlorite, resistant to hard water and heavy metal salts. Good water solubility. When heated to above 45 ℃, a 5% aqueous solution appears turbid. Has no affinity for various fibers and can be mixed with various surfactants.
