Harm score: 2 (Derivatives of natural substances)
Sodium Palm Kernelate, also known by the alternative name sodium palm oil salt, is a substance commonly used in the cosmetic industry and as an ingredient in many detergents and cleaning products. This substance, which is essentially the basic salt of a fatty acid, is obtained from palm oil, specifically from the kernel of the oil palm fruit, after which it chemically reacts with sodium hydroxide. The product of this reaction is known for its exceptional cleansing properties, including its ability to remove oils and fats.
Some of the most common products that contain Sodium Palm Kernelate include soaps, shampoos, skin and body products, but it is also often applied in foaming cleansers. This ingredient helps create a lather that makes it easier to soften and remove dirt. It is also known for its emulsifying properties, which means that it helps maintain the homogeneity of the mixture, prevents the separation of individual ingredients and improves the quality and appearance of the final product. Its use is wide - it can even be found in toothpastes or shaving creams.
