Alpha Olefin Sulphonate, or α-Olefin sulfonates, commonly called AOS for short, is a third-generation anionic surfactant. It's biodegradable, mild, and resistant to hard water, yet with outstanding detergency and excellent compatibility with other types of surfactants. It's widely used to formulate high-foaming heavy-duty detergent as the secondary surfactant alone with Linear Alkyl Benzene Sulphonic Acid (LABSA) or to formulate mild light-duty detergents and personal care products, such as hand soap liquid, shampoo, baby bubble bath, and so on.
Stable at a wide pH range, except in strong acid and alkali.
Pack in tight-closed bags; Store in a dry, ventilated and cool place; Kept away from direct sun and water.
Under proper storage conditions, the shelf life is 24 months.
In detergents and personal care products is 2.0%-15.0%.
