Product STEPANOL® DCFAS-N

Name

Chemical ROSO3Na R = C12-18


Structure

INCI Name Sodium coco-sulfate

CAS No. 68955-19-1 (Alternate CAS Number 97375-27-4)

Applications STEPANOL DCFAS-N is an alkyl sulfate produced from the sulfation of broad-cut coco-fatty alcohol via
Stepan's continuous SO3 process. The product of this process is then dried via a scrape-walled evaporator
and needled via an extruder to produce high active needles of exceptional quality.

STEPANOL DCFAS-N can be combined with surfactants commonly used in the laundry and cleaning industry
to make products such as dishwashing liquids and liquid/powder laundry detergents. STEPANOL DCFAS-N
can also be incorporated into shampoos, body washes, liquid hand soaps, facial cleansers, shaving foams,
bar soaps, and other personal care applications to provide a more rapid viscosity response than other anionic
surfactants (Sodium Lauryl Sulfate, Sodium Lauryl Ether Sulfate, and Alpha Olefin Sulfonate) and cost
savings while maintaining product performance.
