What is Texapon N70 CAS 68585-34-2?

Texapon N70 is a high-active sodium laureth sulfate paste, also known as SLES 70, sodium lauryl ether sulfate, or AES. It has CAS 68585-34-2 and EC list number 500-223-8, and is commonly supplied as a transparent to yellowish flowable paste.

Is Texapon N70 the same as a single pure sodium laureth sulfate compound?

No. Texapon N70 is a commercial surfactant grade based on an ethoxylated alkyl ether sulfate mixture with an EO distribution. It is handled by active matter, appearance, and other commercial specifications rather than as one isolated laboratory-grade molecule.

Why is Texapon N70 described as a high-active SLES 70?

The N70 designation refers to a concentrated grade with active matter typically around 68-73%, often specified as 70 +/- 2%. The high active content makes it a practical primary surfactant for concentrated detergent and personal care formulations.

Where is Texapon N70 mainly used?

It is mainly used as an anionic primary surfactant in liquid detergents, light-duty cleaners, dishwashing liquids, shampoos, shower gels, foam baths, and other cleansing systems. It is a raw material for formulated products, not a finished cleaner or cosmetic.

What formulation properties make Texapon N70 useful?

The ethoxylated sulfate structure gives strong foaming, good hard-water tolerance, and useful detergency. It can provide a lower critical micelle concentration than non-ethoxylated sodium lauryl sulfate, and its viscosity response can be adjusted with dilution order and salt addition in formulation systems.

What should be confirmed before ordering this commercial grade?

Confirm active matter, EO content, appearance, color, pH, unsulfated matter, sodium sulfate, and any required 1,4-dioxane limit. Also confirm whether the intended use is cosmetic, detergent, or another controlled formulation grade, along with package size, net weight, and transport requirements.

Texapon N70 CAS 68585-34-2

Texapon N70 is a concentrated anionic surfactant grade commonly supplied for detergent and cleansing formulations. In practical supply terms, it is used as a formulation ingredient rather than a single pure laboratory chemical, and it is widely associated with sodium laureth sulfate / sodium lauryl ether sulfate systems. It is typically selected for liquid cleaning products, detergent concentrates, and related surfactant-based formulations where detergency, foam performance, and formulation flexibility are required. Texapon N70 is generally supplied in paste or high-active liquid form, with standard export packaging, sample support, and routine supply documents such as COA, TDS, and SDS available on request. Sodium Lauryl Ether Sulfate (SLES) is the related generic anionic surfactant to compare by active matter, viscosity and salt response when Texapon N70 is used as a trade-grade reference.

Physicochemical Properties

Item	Typical Description
Appearance	Flowable paste, transparent to yellowish
Odor	Mild characteristic odor
Physical Form	High-active surfactant paste / concentrated liquid-like paste
Active Matter	Typically around 68–73% for Texapon N70 commercial grade
Water Solubility	Dispersible and usable in water; dilution behavior shows typical ether sulfate gel structure at higher concentrations
Viscosity Behavior on Dilution	Viscosity may rise first during dilution, then decrease as active matter is further reduced
Solution Form	Stable liquid solutions are typically obtained at lower active concentrations; more concentrated systems remain pasty
Salt Response	Can be thickened in formulation systems with appropriate salt addition sequence
Color	Transparent to yellowish
Preservation Status	Unpreserved grade may be supplied depending on product source

Typical Applications

Liquid detergent and light-duty cleaning formulations
Liquid dishwashing and technical cleaning agent systems
Shampoo, shower gel, and foam bath base formulations
General cleansing systems requiring an anionic primary surfactant

Specific end-use suitability should be evaluated according to local regulatory, formulation, and performance requirements.

Packaging

Texapon N70 is usually supplied in sealed containers suitable for high-active surfactant materials. Standard export packaging can be arranged according to order quantity, shipment method, and customer handling requirements. Clean container handling is recommended to reduce contamination risk during filling, storage, and transport. For regular supply programs, packaging can be coordinated to match drum, intermediate container, or other standard bulk distribution formats used for liquid or paste-form surfactants.

Storage

Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place in tightly closed original packaging. Keep away from excessive heat, direct sunlight, and sources of contamination. During storage and transport, package integrity should be maintained and repeated exposure to unsuitable temperature conditions should be avoided. After opening, the container should be resealed promptly to support stable handling in routine supply use.
