Cosmetics & Personal Care Formulations with Dispersants

Crodasinic LS95 is a mild anionic surfactant alternative to sodium laurylsulphate (SLS). Incorporation of SLS into a toothpaste can lead to disintegration of the mucin layer of the mouth by denaturing the proteins of the epithelial cells. The mild properties of Crodasinic LS95 prevent this occurrence. Crodasinic LS95 also offers distinct formulating advantages over SLS in that it is easily dispersible and does not require heating.
