Laureth 7 50 ml

A Mild Non-Ionic Booster for Balanced Cleansing Formulas

Laureth 7 is a non-ionic surfactant derived from ethoxylated lauryl alcohol, widely recognized worldwide as a co-surfactant and solubilizer in household chemicals and personal care products. Demand from manufacturers of shampoos, shower gels, dishwashing liquids and liquid soaps places this ingredient among the most requested items in the Surfactants category. The 50 ml packaging is convenient for home formulators and small trial batches before scaling up to larger production runs.

The main role of Laureth 7 in a formula is to soften and stabilize anionic surfactants. It reduces the irritation potential of sulfate-based ingredients, contributes to the thickening behavior of the finished product, and acts as a solubilizer for essential oils, fragrance compounds and other water-insoluble additives. Thanks to these properties, the ingredient is used not only in cosmetic manufacturing but also in car shampoo production, dishwashing liquids, household chemical concentrates and textile auxiliary formulations.

In practical recipes, Laureth 7 is frequently combined with anionic surfactants such as LABSA, ABSK 96%, where it softens the cleansing action of the acid and helps achieve the desired consistency. It also pairs well with amphoteric components like Coco Betaine, boosting foam quality and making the formula gentler on skin. To introduce fragrance oils or plant extracts into water-based systems, many formulators combine it with the solubilizer Sepiclear G7, achieving clear and stable liquids.

Typical dosage of Laureth 7 in finished formulas ranges from 2 to 8 percent of the total mass, depending on the desired thickness and product purpose. The ingredient is added during the water phase mixing stage, at temperatures between 40 and 50 degrees Celsius, after the acid or sulfate surfactants have been dissolved in water. Mixing should be gentle and consistent to avoid excessive foaming and air bubbles in the final product. Storage is recommended in a tightly closed container, in a dry area at room temperature, away from direct sunlight and heat sources.

Working with a small 50 ml packaging is particularly useful for testing formula ratios before committing to larger production volumes, allowing formulators to fine-tune viscosity and foam behavior without wasting large quantities of raw material.

Замовляла тут різні види рослинних екстрактів для догляду за шкірою ніг. Шкіра стала набагато м'якшою та гладенькою.
