Description

Sodium Lauryl Sulfate, NF, EP, BP, JP

Sodium Lauryl Sulfate, NF, EP, BP, JP is a high-purity, anionic surfactant used in pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and industrial applications for its detergent, emulsifying, and foaming properties. Compliant with multiple pharmacopeial standards—including NF, EP, BP, and JP—it provides consistent solubility, performance, and regulatory compliance across diverse formulations. Sodium Lauryl Sulfate
• Is a multi-pharmacopeial compliant anionic surfactant
• Is used as a foaming agent, emulsifier, and wetting agent
• Is suitable for oral, topical, and cosmetic formulations
• Supports solubilization, cleansing, and dispersion of active ingredients
• Is manufactured under Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) certified conditions
• Is supplied with complete regulatory documentation including Certificate of Analysis (CoA) and technical data
Sodium Lauryl Sulfate is chemically designated as sodium dodecyl sulfate (C12H25SO4Na). It appears as a white to off-white crystalline powder or granules, readily soluble in water, alcohols, and other polar solvents, forming clear solutions with excellent surfactant activity.
In pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and industrial applications, Sodium Lauryl Sulfate is used in:
• Oral and topical formulations, including tablets, syrups, creams, and gels
• Emulsions and suspensions to stabilize dispersed phases and enhance wetting
• Personal care products, such as shampoos, toothpaste, and body washes
• Laboratory and industrial processes requiring detergency or solubilization
• Research and development of formulations with active solubilization requirements
Sodium Lauryl Sulfate provides effective surface activity, improving solubility of poorly soluble actives and enhancing texture and stability in liquid and semi-solid formulations. It is compatible with a wide range of excipients and cosmetic ingredients.
CarboMer supplies Sodium Lauryl Sulfate NF, EP, BP, JP with control over assay, purity, particle size, and microbial limits. Material meets multiple pharmacopeial standards and is suitable for regulated pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and industrial applications.
The material is packaged in sealed, moisture-resistant, tamper-evident containers. Available in laboratory, pilot, and commercial-scale volumes. Minimum order quantities (MOQ), lead times, and documentation including CoA and SDS are provided upon request.
Each batch is tested for identity (IR, HPLC), assay, moisture content, pH, heavy metals, and microbial limits. Certificates of Analysis (CoA), Safety Data Sheets (SDS), and full traceability documentation accompany every shipment.
As with all CarboMer functional surfactants, Sodium Lauryl Sulfate NF, EP, BP, JP is supported by formulation guidance, regulatory expertise, and a reliable global supply to ensure safe, effective, and compliant product performance.
