- STEOL CS-460 is a biodegradable linear fatty alcohol ether sulfate. Stepan's continuous SO3 process minimizes salt and free alcohol content and eliminates the presence of chlorides, thus permitting a more consistent control of viscosity.
- It is a clear liquid of exceptionally light color and good odor.
- STEOL CS-460 is mild with excellent detergent and foaming properties in hard and soft water and is compatible with other anionics, nonionics, and alkaline builders.
- STEOL CS-460 is used in high foaming dishwashing detergents and many industrial cleaners.
- The physical properties of this surfactant suggest many other applications such as shampoos, liquid detergents, foaming agents, heavy duty alkaline cleaners, emulsifiers, textile mill kier boiling bleach assistants, and neutral and alkaline scouring.
- Foam stability in the presence of soap is much improved over other anionics, therefore STEOL CS-460 is recommended for cleaning products containing soap as an ingredient.
