- MultiTech Foaming Agent A C provides improved mildness over sodium lauryl sulfate without sacrificing critical performance attributes, such as foaming and viscosity response. Its low irritation properties make it ideal for mild cleansing products.
- MultiTech Foaming Agent A C can be readily formulated into shampoos, bath products, hand soaps, and detergents offering the required physical properties and performance attributes.
- Products based on MultiTech Foaming Agent A C can be thickened with salts, betaines, or amides, with the latter two also serving to enrich the foam. A variety of performance and physical attributes can be obtained simply by adjusting the amount of additive incorporated into a formula. Since MultiTech Foaming Agent A C is compatible with commonly used opacifying and pearlizing agents, the formulator is afforded flexibility in developing the desired product appearance.

Storage & Handling
- Workplace Exposure
Occupational exposure can occur primarily through skin contact or via inhalation of vapors and mists. Engineering controls, personal protective equipment, and other workplace practices should be used to control these exposures.
- Storage & Handling
- Normal safety precautions (i.e., gloves and safety goggles) should be employed when handling MultiTech Foaming Agent A C. Contact with the eyes and prolonged contact with the skin should be avoided. Wash thoroughly after handling material.
- The recommended dilution procedure for MultiTech Foaming Agent A C is to heat the precalculated water charge to 30-40 °C (86-104 °F). While agitating, add the MultiTech Foaming Agent A C at such a rate as to allow the product to dissolve without forming large gel masses. If excessive foam is generated, decrease agitation. All inorganic salts should be added once a clear solution of desired activity has been obtained.
- It is recommended that MultiTech Foaming Agent A C be stored in sealed containers and kept at temperatures between 32-43 °C (90-110 °F). Avoid overheating or freezing. If material is frozen, heat mildly using warm water tracing.
- Bulk Storage Information: Tanks, pumps, pipes and heat exchangers made of 316 stainless steel are recommended. Rotary piston type (positive displacement only) pumps are recommended. Recommended storage temperature for bulk tanks is 32-43 °C (90-110 °F).
