Description

Sodium Alkylbenzene Sulfonate is a high-performance anionic surfactant widely recognized for its excellent detergency, foaming, and wetting properties. This compound is a fundamental ingredient in the formulation of industrial and institutional cleaning products, offering a powerful combination of cleaning efficacy and cost-effectiveness. It is essential for manufacturers in the detergent, personal care, textile, and emulsion polymerization industries seeking reliable and consistent raw material performance.

Application

• Detergent & Cleaning Formulations: Primary surfactant in laundry powders, liquids, dishwashing detergents, and hard surface cleaners.
• Personal Care Products: Key foaming and cleansing agent in shampoos, shower gels, and hand soaps.
• Industrial & Institutional (I&I) Cleaners: Used in floor cleaners, degreasers, and vehicle wash formulations.
• Textile Processing: Acts as a wetting agent, scouring aid, and emulsifier in fiber and fabric treatment.
• Emulsion Polymerization: Serves as an effective emulsifier in the production of synthetic rubbers, latex paints, and polymer dispersions.
• Agricultural Adjuvants: Used in pesticide and herbicide formulations to enhance spreading and wetting on plant surfaces.
• Oilfield Chemicals: Component in drilling mud formulations and enhanced oil recovery processes.
