  2. Sodium laureth sulfate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_laureth_sulfate

    Sodium laureth sulfate (SLES), an accepted contraction of sodium lauryl ether sulfate (SLES), also called sodium alkylethersulfate, is an anionic detergent and surfactant found in many personal care products (soaps, shampoos, toothpaste, etc.) and for industrial uses. SLES is an inexpensive and very effective foaming agent. [1]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_dodecyl_sulfate

    Sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) or sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS), sometimes written sodium laurilsulfate, is an organic compound with the formula CH3(CH2)11OSO3Na and structure H 3 C − (CH 2) 11−O− S (=O) 2−O−Na+. It is an anionic surfactant used in many cleaning and hygiene products. This compound is the sodium salt of the 12-carbon ...

    242 seconds (2.37 km/s) Burn time. 123 s. Propellant. PBAN - APCP. The Space Shuttle Solid Rocket Booster (SRB) was the first solid-propellant rocket to be used for primary propulsion on a vehicle used for human spaceflight. [1] A pair of these provided 85% of the Space Shuttle 's thrust at liftoff and for the first two minutes of ascent.

    An SLS machine being used at the Centro de Pesquisas Renato Archer in Brazil.. Selective laser sintering (SLS) is an additive manufacturing (AM) technique that uses a laser as the power and heat source to sinter powdered material (typically nylon or polyamide), aiming the laser automatically at points in space defined by a 3D model, binding the material together to create a solid structure.

    Space Launch System. The Space Launch System (SLS) is an American super heavy-lift expendable launch vehicle used by NASA. As the primary launch vehicle of the Artemis Moon landing program, SLS is designed to launch the crewed Orion spacecraft on a trans-lunar trajectory. The first SLS launch was the uncrewed Artemis 1, which took place on 16 ...

  7. Solid rocket booster - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solid_rocket_booster

    Solid rocket booster. A solid rocket booster (SRB) is a large solid propellant motor used to provide thrust in spacecraft launches from initial launch through the first ascent. Many launch vehicles, including the Atlas V, [1] SLS and Space Shuttle, have used SRBs to give launch vehicles much of the thrust required to place the vehicle into orbit.

    Sodium lauroyl sarcosinate was sold as a special ingredient called "Gardol" in Colgate "Dental Cream", as toothpaste was then called, during the 1950s [6][7][8] through the mid-1960s in the US [9][10] and the mid-1970s in France. [11] Its current use as a preventive dentifrice is in Arm & Hammer Baking Soda Toothpaste, a Church & Dwight product ...

  9. Surfactant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surfactant

    The word "surfactant" is a blend of surface-active agent, [1] coined c. 1950. [2] As they consist of a water-repellent and a water-attracting part, they enable water and oil to mix; they can form foam and facilitate the detachment of dirt. Surfactants are among the most widespread and commercially important chemicals.
