We supply Sodium Methyl Lauroyl Taurate powder as INNO KWMLT-95, a cosmetic-grade high-active lauroyl taurinate surfactant for clear, mild cleansing systems.
Key Benefits of Sodium Methyl Lauroyl Taurate Powder (KWMLT-95)
- KWMLT-95 uses a pure C12 lauroyl chain, which gives excellent cold-water solubility and a very mild cleansing profile. It is particularly useful in clear facial gels and water-based cleansers.
- HRIPT testing recorded for the grade was negative. The material is designed for sensitive-skin concepts, including products where eye and skin comfort are central to the formulation brief.
- It blends with amino-acid surfactants, betaines and alkyl polyglucosides. A small amount can soften the sting of soap, AES and sulfate systems without making a clear formula cloudy.
- The powder is PEG free and made without dioxane by-products. Its biodegradation rate is above 92%, supporting formulas that need a clear environmental and purity profile.
- KWMLT-95 uses a salt-free, high-purity process. It foams well across a broad pH range, thickens readily and adds a conditioned skin feel without making production difficult.
Recommended applications
- Use KWMLT-95 in transparent facial gels and water-based cleansers when cold-water solubility and low clouding risk are essential.
- It suits sensitive-skin cleansing concepts that rely on HRIPT support and a very mild C12 taurinate structure.
- In shampoo and body wash, blend it with amino-acid surfactants, betaines or APG to reduce the sting of a stronger cleansing system.
- The powder also works in toothpaste and low-temperature processing routes that need high purity, low salt and easy thickening.

Choosing between related INNO products
KWMLT-95 uses the lauroyl C12 structure for cold-water solubility and clear systems. Cocoyl taurinate grades provide a broader fatty-chain distribution.
Frequently asked questions
Can a cocoyl taurate formula be converted to KWMLT-95 on active matter alone?
Active-matter matching is only the starting point. Rebuild the clarity, foam and viscosity work because the fatty-chain distribution changes the way the surfactant behaves in the complete base.
How should a clear, low-temperature cleanser with KWMLT-95 be qualified?
Test the finished surfactant blend with its fragrance, electrolyte, polymer and preservative. Check haze, crystal formation, foam and viscosity through cold storage and recovery, because clarity cannot be judged from the surfactant alone.
Why can a clear KWMLT-95 batch turn cloudy after acidification?
A rapid pH drop can reduce surfactant solubility locally before the batch has mixed uniformly. Dilute the acid, add it slowly under good circulation, and check clarity only after the final pH and temperature have equilibrated.
What should happen if a KWMLT-95 cleanser hazes in the cold but clears again at room temperature?
Define an acceptance rule around recovery time, repeatability and the absence of sediment or crystals. Run several cold cycles before approval because one reversible cycle does not prove reliable transport performance.
