Made through the ethoxylation of sodium sulfites, Sodium Isethionate is key in the Home Care and I&I and Personal Care industries.

Sodium Isethionate works as an amphoteric detergent and can also be used as an intermediate in preparing surfactants derived from fatty acid sulfoalkyl esters (acyloxy ethane sulfonate).

Sodium Isethionate increases the formulation's stability, improves the detergency in hard water, and is smooth to the skin. These features are commonly used in the Home Care and I&I, and Personal Care markets in soap and shampoo formulations. Its benefits in the final product are highly appreciated by consumers, such as abundant foam and reduced soap residue on the skin, in addition to being a major antistatic agent in shampoos. These features prove Oxiteno's commitment to its purpose of contributing to people's well-being through chemistry.

To ensure its products' chemical efficiency Oxiteno works closely with customers and continuously surveys the market to always be in line with industry trends.
