Linear Alkylbenzene Sulfonate Market Segmented By Applications such as Surfactant & Detergent, Personal Care, Others
Linear alkylbenzenes sulfonate (LAS) belongs to the family of organic compounds. Linear alkylbenzenes sulfonate is generally produced from sulfonation reaction of linear alkylbenzene (LAB). The characteristic properties of linear alkylbenzenes sulfonate mainly depends upon the purity of linear alkylbenzene and sulfonation technology used for LAS production. Linear alkylbenzene sulfonate is a cost-effective surfactant that mainly is used in the formulation of detergents.
LAS is a cleaning agent and it is used in cleaners and laundry detergents. Mostly, it finds applications in consumer products, followed by commercial products. Linear alkylbenzenes sulfonate is proved to be an environmental-friendly compound, which carries largest share of surfactant as compare to others.
Linear alkylbenzenes sulfonate are mainly used in the personal care products, owing to its viable characteristics such as emulsifying capabilities, excellent foam generation and cleansings. Ever-increasing consumer awareness for cleanliness, due to increasing health issues, aging population and lifestyle diseases, is driving the demand for the global linear alkylbenzenes sulfonate market and is expected to rise over the forecast period as LAS-resultant products are not harmful to humans and the environment.
