Sodium-Cocoyl-Isethionates Production Plants

Key Characteristics

Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate (SCI) is celebrated for its:

Mildness: Gentle on skin and hair, reducing irritation risk.
Versatility: Ideal for skin care, shampoo formulations, hair conditioners, and body cleansers.
Solid Shampoo Applications: Most common synthetic surfactant in the solid shampoo market.

Production Process
The production of SCI involves the condensation reaction between Sodium Isethionate and coconut fatty acids under controlled conditions.
Reaction Parameters:

High Temperature: Ensures optimal reactivity between reactants.
Vacuum Conditions: Facilitates the reaction, improving product purity and yield.

Downstream Processing:

A Flaking Unit is added downstream of the reaction unit to convert the product into flakes, the most common commercial presentation for SCI.
