About Sodium C12-15 Pareth-7 Sulfonate

Sodium C12-15 Pareth-7 Sulfonate is the sodium sulfonate of an ethoxylated synthetic fatty alcohol.[1] The number 7 at the end of the name indicates the average number of ethylene oxide units added. It changes the balance between water-loving and oil-loving parts, affecting cleansing power, emulsifying ability, and skin feel. In cosmetics, it helps sebum and impurities rinse away with water, helps create emulsified formulas in which water and oil are evenly mixed, and lowers surface tension so ingredients can wet, mix, and spread evenly.[2]
