Ammonium Laureth Sulphate Supplier Malaysia
- Also known as
- Ammonium Laureth Sulfate
- ALES
- Ammonium Lauryl Ether Sulfate
- Ammonium Lauryl Ether Sulphate
Ammonium laureth sulphate is an ethoxylated anionic surfactant for industrial and formulation enquiries in Malaysia. Its INCI spelling is Ammonium Laureth Sulfate, and it is also known as ammonium lauryl ether sulfate or ALES.
Commercial ALES is an aqueous solution, with grades differentiated by active content, degree of ethoxylation, colour, pH, free alcohol, residual 1,4-dioxane control and preservative system. These parameters vary with the formulation requirement, so buyers should provide the intended specification rather than assume a fixed active level or EO number.
Ammonium laureth sulfate is used in shampoos, hair and body cleansers, bubble bath, liquid dishwash, household and industrial cleaners, textile wetting formulations and emulsion polymerisation. Formulators select it as the ammonium salt of an ethoxylated lauryl alcohol sulphate and should assess the required grade within the complete formulation.
ALES is not ammonium lauryl sulphate (ALS), which is non-ethoxylated, or sodium laureth sulphate (SLES), which has a sodium counter-ion. Sodium lauryl sulphate, alpha olefin sulfonate, sulfosuccinates, taurates and other anionic surfactants are also separate products, so send the exact identity, grade, specification, quantity and delivery location with the enquiry.

Ammonium Laureth Sulfate applications
Common questions about ammonium laureth sulfate
Is ammonium laureth sulphate the same as ammonium lauryl sulphate?
No. Ammonium laureth sulphate is ethoxylated ALES, while ammonium lauryl sulphate is non-ethoxylated ALS. They should remain separate formulation requirements.
Is ALES the same as sodium laureth sulphate?
No. Both are ethoxylated surfactants, but ALES has an ammonium counter-ion and SLES has a sodium counter-ion. Confirm the exact surfactant named in the formulation.
Which ALES grade should I request?
Specify active content, ethoxylation range, colour, pH, free alcohol, residual 1,4-dioxane and preservative requirements so the quotation can address the intended formulation.
What applications use ammonium laureth sulfate?
Applications include shampoos, hair and body cleansers, liquid dishwash, household and industrial cleaners, textile wetting formulations and emulsion polymerisation.
How are packing and documents confirmed for ALES?
Send the required grade, quantity, delivery location and document requirements with the enquiry. Packing and document availability are confirmed with the quotation.
