What is Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate? Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate (chemical formula NaC₁₂H₂₅SO₄) is an anionic surfactant widely used in chemical, industrial, and laboratory applications. It is typically found as a white powder or in solution and is highly soluble in water. Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate, also known by alternate names such as Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS), is a powerful detergent and emulsifier. It is highly valued for its ability to lower surface tension, allowing it to be used effectively in cleaning, foaming, and emulsification processes. Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate is frequently used in the production of personal care products, such as shampoos and toothpaste, as well as in scientific and industrial applications.

Frequent Uses
Detergent and Cleaning Agent
Widely used as a detergent in cleaning applications, particularly in personal care products such as shampoos, body washes, and toothpastes. It helps to remove oils, dirt, and debris from the skin and hair by forming micelles, which encapsulate the impurities and allow them to be washed away.
Laboratory Applications
A crucial reagent in laboratories, especially in biochemistry and molecular biology. It is used in techniques such as Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate Polyacrylamide Gel Electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE), where it helps to denature proteins, providing an effective method for separating proteins based on size.
