Overview of Linear Alkyl Benzene Sulfonic Acid 96%
Linear AlkylBenzene Sulfonic Acid 96 per cent (LABSA 96 96% (LABSA 96 %) is a very energetic anionic surfactant intermediate that is extensively utilised in the home hygiene and detergent manufacturing industries. It's a dark brown viscous fluid recognised for its excellent foaming, cleaning and emulsifying capabilities. Due to its large amount of active matter, LABSA 96% has been a popular choice in the top industrial detergents and cleaning formulas in which high efficacy and effectiveness are essential.
Linear alkyl benzene sulfonic acid 96% uses mainly include detergent powder production, liquid detergents, industrial cleaners, and household cleaning products. It is first neutralised with alkalis like sodium hydroxide to form Linear Alkyl Benzene Sulfonate (LAS), which acts as the primary cleaning agent in most detergent systems. It is highly effective in removing oil, grease, and dirt from fabrics and surfaces, even in hard water conditions.
In modern formulations, LABSA 96% works efficiently with chelating agents like Methylglycine Diacetic Acid, which improves cleaning performance in hard water by binding metal ions. It can also be used in sanitation systems alongside Calcium Hypochlorite Powder for enhanced cleaning and disinfecting applications. At ChemicalBull Pvt. Ltd., we supply high-quality LABSA 96% suitable for detergent manufacturers and industrial cleaning industries.
