The composition avoids the highly viscous gel phase that occurs when concentrated anionic surfactants are diluted with an aqueous solvent. Also described, is a personal care composition of the high-concentrate flowable liquid anionic surfactant composition.

Abstract: The invention relates to a surfactant composition comprising a primary surfactant of sulfonated methyl ester (SME) of a fatty acid having a chain length of 16 to 18 carbon atoms (C16-C18); a secondary surfactant having a carbon chain length shorter than that of the primary surfactant; a non-ionic co-surfactant; a hydrotrope; and a solvent. The secondary surfactant can be a SME of a fatty acid having a chain length of 12 to 14 carbon atoms (C12-C14) or sodium lauryl ether sulfate (SLES). The invention also relates to use of said surfactant composition as a surfactant system in a detergent.
