Colonial ASO-40, when used with amine oxide and electrolytes, produces high viscosity, low color products. Car Washing Compounds Colonial AOS-40, when compounded with other sulfonates and amides, yields high dense foam. This is especially useful in the foaming brush type cleansers. Light-Duty Liquid Detergents Colonial AOS-40 in dishwashing liquids, along with other anionics, produces products that have excellent grease emulsification, mildness to the hands, and excellent foam stability. Colonial AOS-40 produces superior cleaning in very hard water, thus, reducing the need for expensive soluble builders in the formulation. LAST UPDATED 07/18/2006
