SierraSulf 2-EH NA 60
OVERVIEW
SierraSulf 2 EH-NA 60 is an anionic surfactant known as sodium 2-ethylhexyl sulfate (also called 2-ethylhexyl sodium sulfate, Na-2EH sulfate, or sodium octyl sulfate). It is a low-foaming penetrant and wetting agent, ideal for improving fabric wetting and enhancing particle dispersion in emulsions and suspensions. The chemistry is highly stable in caustic systems and compatible with most nonionic and anionic formulations, though generally incompatible with strongly cationic systems. Easily rinsed without residue, SierraSulf 2 EH-NA 60 is widely applied in textiles, industrial cleaning, and dispersion processes where efficient wetting and clean rinsing are required.APPLICATIONS
