OVERVIEW

SierraSurf DOSS 75 E is an anionic surfactant based on dioctyl sodium sulfosuccinate (DOSS)—also known as bis(2-ethylhexyl) sodium sulfosuccinate, sodium dioctyl sulfosuccinate, and sodium bis(2-ethylhexyl) sulfosuccinate—formulated with ethanol (ethyl alcohol) for easy handling and fast dissolution. It delivers rapid wetting and re-wetting for textile processing, industrial/household cleaners, and specialty formulations. Best performance is in neutral to acidic baths; ~1% caustic significantly reduces effectiveness.
