Diheyptal sodium sulfosuccinate is a preparation used in cosmetic formulations. The substance, a derivative of sulfosuccinic acid, acts as a surfactant (washing-active substance). It enhances foam formation and improves volume, structure and durability of the foam. It also acts hydrotropically (increases the solubility of a substance that is only slightly soluble in water).
