    Product Tags

    Advantages

    ● High active ingredient concentration (96%)

    ● Powerful emulsifying and degreasing capabilities

    ● Produces abundant foam in both soft and hard water

    ● Cost-effective primary surfactant

    ● Easily neutralized by alkaline substances (sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, etc.)

    ● Biodegradable and environmentally responsible

    ● It is compatible with other anionic, nonionic, and amphoteric surfactants, making it a versatile ingredient in a wide range of formulations.

    Applications

    ● Detergent Industry (Primary Use): LABSA is a key raw material for the production of laundry detergents, liquid detergents, dishwashing liquids, and household cleaners. It offers excellent cleaning power and rich foaming.

    ● Acidic Cleaners: LABSA performs well in acidic solutions and is therefore commonly used in toilet cleaners and industrial descalers, where acid stability is critical.

    ● Pesticide Emulsifiers: When neutralized with calcium hydroxide or other alkalis, LABSA helps produce emulsifiers for agrochemicals, improving the mixing of pesticides with water.

    ● Industrial Applications: Used as wetting agents and degreasers in textile processing, leather degreasing, electroplating, and paper deinking.

    ● Personal Care and Cosmetics: It can serve as a raw material for producing other surfactants, such as sodium sulfonates and ammonium sulfonates used in shampoo, body wash, and cosmetic formulations.

    Storage

    ● Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area (5°C–35°C).

    ● Corrosive—avoid direct contact with skin and eyes;

    ●Use appropriate protective equipment during handling and processing;

    ● Keep away from incompatible substances, such as strong oxidizing agents;

    ● Neutralize spills with alkaline substances and dispose of in accordance with local regulations.
