Linear Alkyl Benzene Sulfonic Acid / Alkyl Benzene Sulphonic Acid-96% (Esther-LABSA/LAS-96%)

Characteristics :

Linear Alkyl Benzene Sulfonic Acid / Alkyl Benzene Sulphonic Acid-96% (Esther-LABSA/LAS-96%) is a biodegradable linear alkylbenzene sulphonic acid produced by continuous3 sulphonation of a linear alkbenzene.

Esther-LABSA/LAS-96% are prepared industrially by the sulfonation of linear alkylbenzenes (LABs), which can themselves be prepared in several ways. In the most common route benzene is alkylated by long chain monoalkenes (e.g. dodecene) using hydrogen fluoride as a catalyst. The purified dodecylbenzenes (and related derivatives) are then sulfonated with sulfur trioxide to give the sulfonic acid. The sulfonic acid is subsequently neutralized with sodium hydroxide. The term "linear" refers to the starting alkenes rather than the final product, perfectly linear addition products are not seen, in-line with Markovnikov's rule. Thus, the alkylation of linear alkenes, even 1-alkenes such as 1-dodecene, gives several isomers of phenyldodecane.

Application :

Esther-LABSA/LAS-96% as the most important basic washing raw materials, can be widely applied in washing powder and detergent products.

Esther-LABSA/LAS-96% has good characteristics in many respects, such as dissolving ability, wash ability, foaming ability and compatibility.

Esther-LABSA/LAS-96% are a class of anionic surfactants, consisting of a hydrophilic sulfonate head-group and a hydrophobic alkylbenzene tail-group. Along with sodium laureth sulfate they are one of the oldest and most widely used synthetic detergents and may be found in numerous personal-care products (soaps, shampoos, toothpaste etc.) and household-care products (laundry detergent, dishwashing liquid, spray cleaner etc.)
