Ammonium Lauryl Sulfate, ALS 30%, 460 lb/drum

Triethanolamine, commonly abbreviated as TEA, is an organic compound that is both an amine and a triol. It is a clear, colorless to pale yellow, viscous liquid in form with a mild ammonia-like odor. Triethanolamine is widely used in cosmetics, personal care, and industrial formulations as a pH adjuster and neutralizing agent, where it is particularly effective at neutralizing acidic ingredients such as carbomers to produce stable, clear gels and emulsions. It also functions as a surfactant and emulsifier, helping to blend oil and water-based components in creams, lotions, and cleansers. In cleaning and industrial applications, Triethanolamine is used as a corrosion inhibitor, emulsifying agent, and chemical intermediate. It is commonly found in skin care products, hair care formulations, shaving creams, and household cleaning products.
