Research Summary
Fatty methyl ester sulfonates (FMES) are a class of anionic surfactants used in various cleaning and personal care products. They are typically derived from natural fats or oils through a chemical process called esterification, which converts the fatty acids in these fats and oils into their methyl ester form. These methyl esters are then sulfonated to create FMES. FMES are known for their excellent cleaning and foaming properties, making them valuable ingredients in products like liquid detergents, dishwashing liquids, and shampoos. They are effective at removing dirt, grease, and stains due to their ability to reduce the surface tension of water, allowing it to penetrate and lift away residues. Additionally, FMES are biodegradable and are considered more environmentally friendly than some other surfactants, which has contributed to their popularity in green and eco-friendly cleaning and personal care products.
