Homecare & Institutional Cleaning

STEPANOL AM is an anionic surfactant providing excellent foam and viscosity characteristics. It can be used in liquid hand soaps and bath products. It also finds application in carpet and upholstery cleaners, textile wet processing and scouring, and metal working applications.

STEPANATE SXS is an anionic surfactant used in liquid detergent, heavy duty cleaning, wax stripping, dishwashing detergent formulations and textile applications. It functions as a solubilizer, coupling agent and cloud point depressant. This product meets the U.S. EPA Safer Choice Program's surfactant screen and is listed on www.cleangredients.org.

STEPOSOL MET-10U utilizes the cleaning properties of a surfactant to outperform many common solvents. It fulfills the role of both a low HLB surfactant and a powerful solvent, which allows it to be highly effective against a broad range of soils. STEPOSOL MET-10U can be used in formulations ranging from pH 3–12 while achieving viscosities from water-thin to gel. This metathesis-derived, nonionic surfactant is an unsaturated, short chain amide resulting from Stepan’s collaboration with Elevance Renewable Sciences and furthers Stepan’s effort to deliver renewable, naturally-derived products to the market.

STEPANQUAT 50 NF is a quaternary used for broad spectrum preservation of personal care products.
