Spolapon AES 242 AM is an anionic surfactant commonly used as an ingredient in the production of fine personal care and cosmetic products. Most notably it exhibits copious stable foam with favourable viscosity properties. The product is especially suitable for liquid shampoos, skin cleaning agents with low pH and owing to its low irriation it is recommended for baby products.
Spolapon AES 242 AM is highly valued for its ready biodegradability. Such properties allow the product to be used also in industrial foaming agents.
