Your Proffesional Sodium Laurate Supplier in China
High-Purity Sodium Laurate (C12H23NaO2) for Soap, Kosmetik, Pharmaceuticals & Industrial Applications
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, pengemulsi, foaming agent and cleansing ingredient in soap, detergents, skincare, 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
