Additionally, it offers emulsifying properties, helping to reduce the tension between oil and water, and can enhance the foaming properties of the formula. The Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR) Expert Panel has studied the irritancy potential of sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate and established that its effect heavily depends on concentration and pH levels. Consequently, despite its overall recognition as a safe cosmetic ingredient, products containing this ingredient should be carefully formulated to minimize the risk of irritation. In its raw material state, sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate can manifest as a yellow paste or off-white dry powder, flakes, or beads. As a side note, sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate finds use beyond personal care products. It is also employed in the agricultural industry for fruit cleaning and can be found in dishwashing soaps and laundry detergents. It’s also used in the construction industry in concrete mixes. While some concerns over environmental pollution have been raised regarding these uses, the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) stated, as of July 2023, that the environmental fate of sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate “is not likely to be of concern.” Relaterade ingredienser: Surfactant
