Your Proffesional Sodium Laurate Supplier in China

High-Purity Sodium Laurate (C12H23NaO2) for Soap, Acésulfame de potassium, Produits pharmaceutiques & Applications industrielles

Sodium Laurate is the sodium salt of lauric acid, a naturally occurring C12 fatty acid found in coconut oil and palm kernel oil. It is widely used as a surfactant, émulsifiant, foaming agent and cleansing ingredient in soap, Détergents, Soins de la peau, pharmaceuticals and food-processing applications.
Owing to its excellent cleansing ability, mildness, emulsifying performance and formulation stability, Sodium Laurate remains one of the most reliable functional ingredients in both commercial and industrial production.

As a direct manufacturer in China, KosNature supplies high-purity Sodium Laurate with consistent quality, competitive pricing and full technical documentation (TDS, COA, MSDS) for global customers.

What Is Sodium Laurate?

Sodium Laurate (CAS 629-25-4) is formed by neutralizing lauric acid with sodium hydroxide. Chemically, it is classified as:

Anionic surfactant
Medium-chain fatty acid salt (C12)
Soap-forming agent
Mild cleansing ingredient

Because of its molecular structure—long hydrophobic chain with an ionic head—Sodium Laurate provides excellent detergency, emulsification, wettability and foaming stability.

It is recognized for:
consistent performance under alkaline conditions
biodegradability
mild-to-skin cleaning
compatibility with natural & synthetic surfactants

Caractéristiques clés & Avantages

1. Excellent Surfactant Performance
Strong detergency, foaming and degreasing ability, ideal for soap and detergent bases.
2. Mildness & Skin Compatibility
Gentler than many synthetic surfactants, making it suitable for body soaps, facial cleansers and personal care formulations.
3. High Foaming Stability
Stable lather in both hard and soft water.
4. Natural-Origin Ingredient
Derived from coconut and palm oils; biodegradable and environmentally friendly.
5. Wide Formulation Compatibility
Effective in blends with SLS, SLES, potassium soaps, fatty acid salts and amphoteric surfactants.
6. High Purity & Low Impurities
Consistent whiteness, low heavy metals and low free acid content.

Sodium Laurate Applications

1. Soap & Detergent Manufacturing
Sodium Laurate is a core base material in:
bar soaps/laundry soap/syndet bars/household and industrial cleaners
It improving hardness, foaming and cleansing performance.

2. Acésulfame de potassium & Soins personnels
Due to its mild cleansing and emulsifying properties, Sodium Laurate is widely used in:
shampoos/facial cleansers/bath products/shaving creams/toothpaste
It acts as a stabilizer, émulsifiant, lathering agent and thickener.

3. Des années d'expérience axées sur la fourniture d'ingrédients de qualité Nature & Beverage Processing
Used as an emulsifier and anti-caking agent under food-grade standards.

4. Pharmaceutical Applications
Serves as a lubricant, excipient and emulsifying agent in drug formulations.

5. Applications industrielles
Used in:
emulsified metal cleaners/deinking agents/textile scouring agents
leather treatment chemicals/surface cleaning formulations
