LABSA Linear alkyl benzene sulfonic acid

LABSA Linear alkyl benzene sulfonic acid acid is a chemical which is colorless and have viscous properties. Sulfonic acid mainly using in detergent formulations. It is one of the most important and cheapest surfactants in powder formulation and detergent fluids.

Sulfonic acid

Linear alkyl benzene sulfonic acidis in the formulation of anionic, non-anionic, and amphoteric surfactants, and it is extremely important for its degradability in nature. It is soluble in water and emulsifying agent. Alkyl benzene sulfonic acid is one of the most widely used anionic surfactants due to its low cost, high efficiency and biocompatibility due to its linear chain. This anionic surfactant has hydrophilic and hydrophobic groups. These are non-volatile compounds produced by the sulfonation process. These compounds consist of mixtures of carbon chains of 10 to 14 carbon lengths that are a phenyl group with a sulfonate group.

LABSA Linear alkyl benzene sulfonic acid application

The properties of LABSA depend on the length of the alkane chains that give them different functionality. Surfactants are used in the industry to increase the contact of polar and non-polar phases, such as oil, water, or water and minerals. Linear alkyl benzene sulfonate is mainly used for the manufacture of household detergents such as laundry powder, washing liquid, dishwashing liquid and other household cleaners and other industrial uses.

Sulfonic acid uses in produce sulfonic acid. LABSA is an additive as an lubricating agent oils and have as corrosion and rust prevention. his product is a very effective intermediate surfactant. It is usually neutralized with alkali types and forms sulphonates used in different fields. This product can be used in acidic environments.

Linear Alkyl Benzene Sulfonic Acid (LABSA) Specification

Sulfonic acid is a class of organic acids that have a general formula of R-SO3H, where R is an organic group. Sulfonic acids are strong acids and have a wide range of industrial and laboratory applications, including as catalysts, detergents, and ion-exchange resins. Below is a data sheet for sulfonic acid:

  • Chemical formula: R-SO3H Molecular
  • weight: varies depending on the organic group attached to the sulfonic acid Appearance: varies depending on the form of sulfonic acid, can be a colorless liquid or a solid
  • Odor: odorless or has a faint sulfurous odor
  • Melting point: varies depending on the form of sulfonic acid, can range from -25°C to 1000°C
  • Boiling point: varies depending on the form of sulfonic acid, can range from 20°C to over 300°C
  • Solubility: highly soluble in water and polar solvents, but insoluble in nonpolar solvents
  • Density: varies depending on the form of sulfonic acid, can range from 1.2 g/cm3 to over 2.0 g/cm3
  • pKa: typically between -1 and 3, indicating strong acidity
  • Reactivity: sulfonic acids are strong acids and can react with strong bases, metals, and oxidizing agents
  • Hazards: sulfonic acids can cause skin and eye irritation and are corrosive to metals, and should be handled with care in a well-ventilated area using appropriate personal protective equipment.
  • Note: The specific properties of sulfonic acid can vary depending on the specific organic group attached to the sulfonic acid.
