- STEPAN-MILD LSB is a versatile anionic surfactant blend which can be used in a variety of personal care applications. It is a mild surfactant blend with good foam quality and viscosity building characteristics in formulated products. It is used for children and baby products as well as for adult products where sensitive skin is involved.
- STEPAN-MILD LSB can be used as a mild primary or secondary surfactant. It is less irritating than lauryl and lauryl ether sulfates.
- STEPAN-MILD LSB easily builds high viscosity with amides and salts and provides excellent foam stability.
- It is an exceptional hard water foamer, a highly effective lime soap dispersant and foams well in the presence of soap.
- STEPAN-MILD LSB should be formulated within the pH range of 5.5 - 6.5.

Storage & Handling
- Shelf Life and Storage Condition
- Normal safety precautions (e.g., gloves and safety goggles) should be employed when handling STEAPN-MILD LSB.
- Contact with eyes, nose or prolonged contact with skin should be avoided. Wash thoroughly after handling STEPAN-MILD LSB.
- Non-Bulk Storage Recommendations: It is recommended that STEPAN-MILD LSB be stored in sealed containers and kept at a temperature maximum 30°C (maximum 86°F). Avoid freezing or overheating. If material is frozen, warm slowly to room temperature and agitate to ensure material is homogeneous before use. Do not expose this product to temperatures minimum 30°C (minimum 86°F) for an extended period of time. Sulfosuccinates (a component of STEPAN-MILD LSB) typically display evidence of instability with storage at elevated temperatures, as indicated by a decrease in pH and an increase in the nonionic content which will increase the viscosity of STEPAN-MILD LSB. Stepan’s recommended re-test for this product is 12 months from the date of manufacture. After 12 months, we recommend the customer reanalyze to assure product is within specification.
