About Sodium Laureth-4 Carboxylate

Sodium Laureth-4 Carboxylate is the sodium salt of a carboxylic acid derived from Laureth-4.[1] The number 4 at the end of the name indicates the average number of added ethylene oxide units and changes the balance between water-loving and oil-loving portions, resulting in differences in cleansing and emulsifying performance and feel. In cosmetics, it is used to help sebum and impurities rinse away with water, form foam during use, and lower surface tension so ingredients can wet, mix, and spread evenly.[2]
