Disodium laureth-9 sulfosuccinate is a substance which is used as a surfactant in cosmetic formulations.

The polyoxyethylene ethers of lauric alcohol are called laureth(s) (for comparison see: cetethe as polyoxyethylene ether of cetylacohol; steareth as polyoxyethylene ether of stearyl alcohol and others).
