8.5
Active Mechanism
surfactant cleaning
Surfactants
4 (anionic, nonionic, amphoteric, cationic)
Expert Analysis
This alkaline shampoo (pH 8.5) uses a multi-surfactant system combining anionic, nonionic, amphoteric, and cationic surfactants to chemically lift contaminants without requiring heavy mechanical agitation. The primary anionic surfactant (C14-16 alkane hydroxy and alkene sulfonic acid sodium salts) provides strong cleaning power while the supporting surfactants enhance mildness and compatibility with ceramic coatings.
Key Differentiators
- •Multi-surfactant system designed to reduce mechanical wash agitation on ceramic coatings
- •Full ingredient transparency with all 11 components disclosed
- •High concentration formula requiring only 1 oz per wash bucket
