- STEPANOL CFAS-70 is an alkyl sulfate paste produced from the sulfation of broad-cut coco-fatty alcohol via Stepan's continuous SO₃ process.
- STEPANOL CFAS-70 can be combined with surfactants commonly used in the laundry and cleaning industry to make products such as dishwashing liquids and liquid/powder laundry detergents.STEPANOL CFAS-70 can also be incorporated into shampoos, body washes, liquid hand soaps, facial cleansers, shaving foams, bar soaps, and other personal care applications with betaines and amides to provide a more rapid viscosity response than other anionic surfactants (Sodium Lauryl Sulfate, Sodium Lauryl Ether Sulfate, and Alpha Olefin Sulfonate) and cost savings while maintaining product performance.

Safety & Health
- Toxicity
STEPANOL CFAS-70 is slightly toxic orally to mammals (LD₅₀ is between 0.8 to 1.1 g/kg) and aquatic organisms (LC50 = 11.1 mg/L). At 10% active, it causes mild to moderate skin and eye irritation.
Packaging & Availability
- Packaging Type
- Standard Packaging
STEPANOL CFAS-70 is available in HDPE Drums (net weight 200 kg) or Isotanks (20MT).
Storage & Handling
- Storage & Handling
- Normal safety precautions (i.e. dust mask, goggles and gloves) should be worn when handling STEPANOL CFAS-70. Contact with the eyes and prolonged contact with the skin should be avoided. Wash thoroughly after handling material.
- It is recommended that STEPANOL CFAS-70 be stored in sealed containers or tanks and maintained in a warm environment (40°C to 50°C) to prevent the paste from solidifying. Avoid overheating or freezing. If material is frozen, heat mildly using warm water tracing and agitate until homogeneous.
