STEOL CS-270 PLUS is a biodegradable linear fatty alcohol ether sulfate. This 70% active, 2-mole sodium lauryl ether sulfate (SLES) is mild with excellent detergent and foaming properties in hard and soft water and is compatible with other anionics, nonionics, and alkaline builders. STEOL CS-270 PLUS proves improved mildness over sodium lauryl sulfate without sacrificing critical performance attributes such as foaming and viscosity response. Additional manufacturing considerations result in a low level of residual 1,4-dioxane in STEOL CS-270 PLUS. This product also meets the U.S. EPA Safer Choice Program's surfactant screen and is listed on Cleangredients.org.
