The product we are introducing is Factory Supply Docusate Sodium 50% with the CAS number 577 - 11 - 7. Docusate sodium is a well - known chemical compound, which is a surfactant. Our product has a purity of 50%, which is a reliable and cost - effective option for various applications.
Chemically, docusate sodium, also known as dioctyl sodium sulfosuccinate, has a molecular formula of C₂₀H₃₇NaO₇S. It appears as a white to off - white waxy solid or powder. Its solubility is good in water, alcohol, and glycerol, which makes it suitable for a wide range of formulations.
1. Pharmaceutical Industry: Docusate sodium is commonly used as a stool softener. It helps to increase the amount of water in the stool, making it easier to pass. It is often prescribed for patients who have difficulty with bowel movements due to various reasons such as certain medications, a low - fiber diet, or limited physical activity.
2. Cosmetic Industry: It can be used as an emulsifier and surfactant in cosmetic products. It helps to mix oil and water phases in creams, lotions, and other formulations, improving the stability and texture of the products.
3. Industrial Applications: In some industrial processes, docusate sodium can be used as a wetting agent. It can reduce the surface tension of a liquid, allowing it to spread more easily on a solid surface. This property is useful in processes such as dyeing, painting, and metal cleaning.
1. Pharmaceutical Use: When used as a stool softener, the dosage usually depends on the patient's age and condition. For adults, the typical oral dosage is 50 - 300 mg per day, divided into one or more doses. It is best to take it with a full glass of water. For children, the dosage should be determined by a doctor according to the child's weight.
2. Cosmetic Use: In cosmetic formulations, the amount of docusate sodium added usually ranges from 0.5% to 5% depending on the specific product and formulation requirements. It should be added during the mixing process of the oil and water phases to ensure proper emulsification.
3. Industrial Use: As a wetting agent, the dosage needs to be adjusted according to the nature of the liquid and the surface to be treated. Usually, a small amount (0.1% - 1%) can significantly reduce the surface tension.
Case 1: Pharmaceutical Use
A 65 - year - old male patient had been experiencing constipation due to long - term use of painkillers. After taking docusate sodium 50% capsules at a dosage of 100 mg twice a day, his bowel movements became regular within a week. He reported that the stools were softer and easier to pass, and he no longer suffered from the discomfort associated with constipation.
Case 2: Cosmetic Use
A cosmetic company was developing a new moisturizing lotion. By adding 2% docusate sodium to the formulation, they were able to achieve a more stable emulsion. The lotion had a smooth texture and did not separate over time. The product was well - received by consumers due to its good quality and stability.
Case 3: Industrial Use
In a metal - cleaning process, a factory was having trouble with the cleaning solution not spreading evenly on the metal surface. After adding 0.5% docusate sodium to the cleaning solution, the solution spread more uniformly, and the cleaning efficiency was significantly improved. The metal parts were cleaner, and the production process became more efficient.
