Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is Ammonium isethionate (CAS 57267-78-4)?

Ammonium isethionate (CAS 57267-78-4), also named Ammonium 2-hydroxyethanesulfonate (AHES). CAS No.57267-78-4 is its unique global chemical identifier.It is an organic sulfonate fine chemical intermediate.

Q2: What are its key physical & chemical properties?

Its apperance is offwhite to white crystalline powder, odorless. Our purity can reach 99%min. It is hygroscopic and freely soluble in water. Stable under ambient temperature; toxic fumes (SOx, ammonia) will release upon thermal decomposition.

Q3: What precautions should be taken during handling?

It is irritant to skin and may cause serious eye irritation. Wear safety goggles and chemical-resistant gloves. Avoid dust inhalation. Keep away from strong oxidants and strong alkalis. Work in ventilated area and protect from moisture.

Q4: What are the application fields of Ammonium isethionate CAS 57267-78-4?

It is mainly used as intermediate for pharmaceutical & fine chemical synthesis, and key raw material for taurine production. It also serves as biochemical reagent, building block for specialty surfactant and organic synthesis. It provides hydroxyethanesulfonate functional group for constructing sulfonate-containing target molecules.

Q5: What are special shipping precautions?

This product is non-hazardous goods for regular shipment. Keep packages sealed, protected from moisture & sunlight, segregated from strong oxidants and strong alkalis, prevent package damage and dust release.
