Description

Sulfonic Acids, Petroleum, Sodium Salts are a class of anionic surfactants derived from petroleum feedstocks. These versatile compounds are valued for their excellent emulsifying, wetting, and detergent properties, making them essential for a wide range of industrial formulations. They are particularly sought after by manufacturers in the detergent, textile, and oilfield chemical industries for their robust performance and cost-effectiveness.

Application

• Primary Surfactant in Industrial & Institutional (I&I) Cleaners: Used in heavy-duty degreasers, floor cleaners, and vehicle wash formulations.
• Emulsifier and Demulsifier in Oilfield Applications: Key component in drilling muds, crude oil demulsifiers, and enhanced oil recovery (EOR) chemicals.
• Textile Processing Aid: Functions as a wetting agent, scouring agent, and dye leveling assistant in fabric manufacturing.
• Agricultural Adjuvant: Enhances the spreading and sticking of pesticides and herbicides on plant surfaces.
• Intermediate for Chemical Synthesis: Serves as a raw material for manufacturing other specialty surfactants and sulfonated compounds.
• Additive in Leather Processing: Used in tanning and fatliquoring processes to improve penetration and softening.
