1. PROPERTIES
SLS needle (red) is an anionic surfactant in needle form. It has
excellent foaming power and detergency property. It is also a good
emulsifier. It is most effective under alkaline conditions
(PH＞7.5). It can be used with other anionic, non-ionic or
amphoteric surfactants. However, due to its anionic character, it
should not be used with cationic components like cationic
surfactants, cationic dyes, etc.
2. APPLICATION

5. HANDLING AND STORAGE
Store the material in a clean, dry place below 35C away from direct
heat, sunlight and moisture. Slight Ph drop is possible over
prolonged storage. In case of drop in PH, it is fairly safe to use
the material as long as the PH is ≥7.0. In the original sealed
condition, when stored as suggested, the shelft life of the product
is at least one year. Soft, easily breakable agglomerates may be
formed on storage. Since the material is hygroscopic in nature, use
the product within a week after opening the bag. Spills should be
contained/collected and disposed off as per the regulations. Avoid
ingestion and inhalation(when concentration in air is high, use
appropriate mask) and also avoid contact with eyes, skin and
clothing. In case of contac with eyes, seek adequate and timely
medical attention. During storage, to avoid lumping, do not stack
more than 8 bags (non-palletized) one above the other and if
palletized, single pallet on ground or in pigeon hole. Jumbo bags
should be stored only with crates and should not be stacked one
above the other during storage.
