Medialan (Sodium Lauryl Sarcosinate) is a natural anionic, very mild surfactant derived from coconut oil.
Appearance at room temperature is a clear liquid.
Concentration - 30% dry matter.
Medialan LD has a high foaming ability.
Medialan LD provides an excellent synergistic effect in combination with other surfactants, while reducing irritant action and increasing foaming power.
Foaming properties depend on the pH of the finished product.
Foam stability is better in slightly acidic than in alkaline environments.
Medialan LD is advisable to bring the pH to slightly acidic from 5.5 to 6.5, for example, citric acid.
Medialan LD is non-toxic, safe, does not irritate the skin.
Due to Medialan LD's excellent physiological properties and neutral taste, Medialan LD is widely used as a foaming agent in oral care products, toothpastes.

Product Information:
Because of its excellent physiological properties and neutral taste Medialan LD is widely used as a foaming agent in dental care preparations, especially intoothpastes.
The concentration of Medialan LD in toothpastes is usually in therange of 1 % to 6 %.
As a liquid, Medialan LD does not cause troublesome dusting in processing.
Medialan LD combines a good cleansing action with relatively weak degreasing.
Thus for the manufacture of hair shampoos and body cleansing products Medialan LD is often best combined as mild co-surfactant with alkyl ether sulphates.

Profile of Medialan LD:
Because of its excellent physiological properties and neutral taste Medialan LD is widely used as a foaming agent in dental care preparations, especially in toothpastes.
The concentration of Medialan LD in toothpastes is usually in the range of 1 % to 6 %.

Thus for the manufacture of hair shampoos and body cleansing products Medialan LD is often best combined as mild Co-surfactant with alkyl ether sulphates.
Foaming behaviour of Medialan LD:
Medialan LD has very good foaming properties especially in soft water and displays interesting synergistic and foam-stabilising properties when combined with other surfactants, e.g. alkyl ether sulphates.
The foaming behaviour of Medialan LD also depends on the pH of the finished product.
Medialan LD is usually worthwhile to adjust the formulations to a slightly acid pH of between 5.5 and 6.5, for instance with citric acid.
Foam stability in relation to time is also considerably better in the weakly acid than in the alkaline pH range.
Compared with some other surfactants, Medialan LD has excellent foaming power in electrolyte-containing solutions.
Solubility and Compatibility of Medialan LD:
Medialan LD is soluble in water in any ratio and forms clear solutions.
Medialan LD can be combined with other anionic surfactants commonly used in cosmetics and in some instances improves their skin compatibility.
Storage of Medialan LD:
Medialan LD is stable for at least three years at room temperature in its original containers.
