Linear Alkyl Benzene Sulphonic Acid, commonly known as LABSA, is a synthetic surfactant of the anionic type, produced through the sulfonation of Linear Alkyl Benzene (LAB). It is one of the most cr…
Superior Detergency: Provides exceptional removal of oily stains and soils through high surface activity and micelle formation.
Biodegradability: Meets stringent environmental standards for rapid breakdown into non-toxic components, minimizing ecological impact.
Cost-Efficiency: One of the most economical anionic surfactants available, offering high performance at a lower price point than fatty alcohol sulfates.
Synergistic Properties: Demonstrates excellent compatibility with other anionic, non-ionic, and amphoteric surfactants, enhancing overall formulation performance.
Chemical Stability: Highly stable during storage and maintains effectiveness across a wide range of water hardness and temperature conditions.
Foaming Ability: Produces stable, rich foam, which is an essential aesthetic and functional requirement for consumer detergent products.
规格
技术亮点
Active Matter Content: Commercial grades typically offer a high concentration of active matter, generally ≥96%.
Low Free Oil: Contains minimal unsulfonated matter (usually <2%), ensuring high solubility and performance in the final product.
Sulfuric Acid Content: Residual H2SO4 is strictly controlled (typically <1.5%) to manage viscosity and neutralization requirements.
Molecular Weight: Average molecular weight ranges between 320 and 326 g/mol, depending on the alkyl chain distribution.
Acid Value: Characterized by a high acid value (approx. 180–190 mg KOH/g), necessitating careful handling and neutralization.
Solubility: Fully miscible in water and polar solvents, though its viscosity increases significantly upon partial dilution or neutralization (the “gel phase”).
