Product Usage:
SDS is a highly effective anionic surfactant and emulsifier, widely used across various industries:

Personal Care & Cosmetics: Shampoos, body washes, toothpaste, shaving creams, and bubble baths (as a primary foaming agent, degreaser, and emulsifier).

Household Cleaning: Laundry detergents, dishwashing liquids, all-purpose cleaners, and stain removers (for its excellent grease-cutting and foaming properties).

Industrial Applications: Emulsion polymerization (for producing latex, PVC, and acrylics), metal cleaning, textile processing (wetting and degreasing agent), and agricultural emulsifiers.

Laboratory & Biochemical Research: Cell lysis buffer, protein solubilization (e.g., in SDS-PAGE for protein separation), DNA extraction, and membrane protein studies.

Pharmaceuticals: As an excipient in tablet coatings and liquid formulations to enhance solubility and absorption.
