Alpha Olefin Sulphonate – AOS 40
Price range: ₦4,500.00 through ₦19,100.00
Also known as Alpha olefin Sulphonate, it is an Anionic surfactant that offers the advantage of high foaming power,
Also known as Alpha olefin Sulphonate, it is an Anionic surfactant that offers the advantage of high foaming power, it lathers and cleanses, AOS 40 is a mild action Surfactant with good emulsification and excellent lime soap dispersion.
AOS 40 reacts to hydrolysis. which makes it ideal in formulations with Acidic properties like Salicylic Acid, Alpha-hydroxy Acids, etc.
Easily biodegradable, AOS is environmentally friendly, giving a luxurious and excellent foaming performance that is gentle on the skin. Viscosity can be built with the addition of amides, betaines, and/or salt.
AOS may be produced from several olefins with differing performance characteristics. Typical grades are derived from C14-16, C16-18, and C14-18, and vary in product applications. Lower molecular weight grades are more soluble and produce better foam, while those with higher molecular weights have reduced solubility and increased detergency. Therefore, AOS of two different grades could lead to performance differences in apparently similar products with all other ingredients held constant. Foam volume, density, and viscosity also vary depending on parent olefin carbon chain lengths and ratios.
