BASF Golpanol ALS 25 Sodium Allyl Sulfonate 25% – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the CAS number for Sodium Allyl Sulfonate?

A: The CAS number for sodium allyl sulfonate (the active ingredient) is 24307-26-4.


Q2: What is the recommended usage level in shampoo formulations?

A: Typical use levels range from 3–10% (w/w) in final formulations, depending on desired foaming profile, viscosity, and mildness requirements.


Q3: How does Golpanol ALS 25 compare to sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) or sodium laureth sulfate (SLES)?

A: Unlike SLS/SLES, Golpanol ALS 25 offers significantly lower irritation potential, better hard-water tolerance, and inherent polymerizable functionality — making it suitable for both end-use formulations and reactive applications.


Q4: Is Golpanol ALS 25 compliant with COSMOS and Ecocert standards?

A: While the base molecule is chemically compatible with natural/clean criteria, Golpanol ALS 25 is not currently certified under COSMOS or Ecocert due to its synthetic origin and manufacturing process; users should consult BASF’s latest Eco-Profile documentation for formulation-level assessments.


Q5: Does Golpanol ALS 25 exhibit migration or extraction concerns in packaging?

A: No significant migration has been observed in standard HDPE, PET, or aluminum-laminated packaging under typical storage conditions (≤40°C, ≤24 months); compatibility testing with specific packaging materials is recommended for long-term commercial use.
