SLS Needles – 100ml
High-Foaming Surfactant for Soap and Cleansing Products
SLS Needles, also known as Sodium Lauryl Sulfate, are a powerful anionic surfactant used in soaps, shampoos, cleansers, and detergents. In needle form, SLS is easy to handle, melt, and blend into formulations, offering high foaming power and strong cleansing performance. It effectively removes dirt, oil, and buildup, making it a staple in personal care and household cleaning products.
While it delivers strong cleaning and lathering, SLS is best used in balanced formulations alongside mild co-surfactants to reduce potential irritation. When used correctly, it creates products with satisfying foam, superior spreadability, and excellent rinse-off.
