Phase Behaviour and Physical Properties of Sulphonated Methyl Ester and Fatty Alcohol Ether Sulphate Mixtures.

Sulphonated Methyl Ester (SME) and Fatty Alcohol Ether Sulphated (FAES) are anionic surfactants produced from palm oil. SME and FAES are widely used in detergent but their phase behaviour in ternary phase system is little known. The phase behaviour in ternary system has been studied at 70°C under vi...
