Description :

Overview of Sodium Thioglycolate

Hair removal lotions, depilatory waxes, and permanent wave solutions all contain sodium thioglycolate, a strong reducing agent. It breaks down disulfide bonds in keratin to softly and painlessly remove hair. When appropriately neutralised, it provides rapid action with minimal discomfort and is stable in alkaline formulations.

In personal care, it's the gold standard for at-home and professional depilatory products. Related products, such as Triethyl Citrate, Glycerin, Caprylyl Glycol, Polysorbate 20, and Sorbitan Monooleate, enhance its stability and skin comfort in formulations.

ChemicalBull supplies high-purity Sodium Thioglycolate suitable for cosmetic and personal care-grade use.
