Compendium of the most significant studies with reference to properties, intake, effects.

Cornwell, P. A. (2018). A review of shampoo surfactant technology: consumer benefits, raw materials and recent developments. International journal of cosmetic science, 40(1), 16-30.

Abstract.  The purpose of this review was to assist the design of effective, modern, shampoo surfactant technologies. The mechanisms through which surfactants help deliver their effects are presented, along with the appraisal techniques through which surfactant options can be tested and screened for product development. 

Lockwood, A. P., Shun, P. K., Peakall, J., Warren, N. J., Barber, T., Basharat, N., ... & Hunter, T. N. (2021). Flotation using sodium dodecyl sulphate and sodium lauroyl isethionate for rapid dewatering of Mg (OH) 2 radwaste suspensions. RSC Advances, 11(30), 18661-18675.

Abstract. Mg(OH)2 suspensions were floated utilising sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) and sodium lauroyl isethionate (SLI) collectors, for rapid dewatering of radwaste suspensions.

Flood, J. C. (2015). Solution and Liquid Crystalline Properties of Sodium Lauroyl Methyl Isethionate/Water Mixtures. The University of Manchester (United Kingdom).

Abstract. Surfactants have characteristic structural features comprising a hydrophobic (water hating) tail group and hydrophilic head group (water loving).....

Jeraal, M. I., Roberts, K. J., McRobbie, I., & Harbottle, D. (2018). Process-focused synthesis, crystallization, and physicochemical characterization of sodium lauroyl isethionate. ACS Sustainable Chemistry & Engineering, 6(2), 2667-2675.

Abstract. A specific homologue, sodium lauroyl isethionate (SLI), was therefore synthesized, purified by recrystallization, and then subjected to a detailed physicochemical examination. 

Jeraal, M. I., Roberts, K. J., McRobbie, I., & Harbottle, D. (2019). Assessment of the thermal degradation of sodium lauroyl isethionate using predictive isoconversional kinetics and a temperature-resolved analysis of evolved gases. Industrial & Engineering Chemistry Research, 58(19), 8112-8122.

Abstract. Sodium lauroyl isethionate is a popular, milder alternative to traditional soaps and surfactants in personal care formulations. Product performance, efficiency, color, and odor, however, can be compromised by thermal degradation at elevated manufacturing temperatures. 

Belsito, D. V., Hill, R. A., Klaassen, C. D., Liebler, D. C., Marks Jr, J. G., Shank, R. C., ... & Snyder, P. W. (2013). Amended Safety Assessment of Isethionate Salts as Used in Cosmetics.

Abstract. The CIR Expert Panel concluded that the twelve isethionate salts listed below are safe in the present practices of use and concentration in cosmetics, when formulated to be non-irritating. This conclusion supersedes the earlier conclusion issued by the Expert Panel in 1993...Sodium Lauroyl Methyl Isethionate...
