Wetting agents - Import export

Chemical appearance: Linear AlkylbenzeneSulphonic Acid is a sticky, highly viscous brown liquid. This highly dense liquid does not have a pungent smell. In temperatures lower than 10 degree Celsius, the chemical solidifies. Chemical application and strengths: LABSA is an anionic surfactant. Its molecules have both hydrophobic and hydrophilic group. This compound is created from a sulfonation process where chlorosulfonic acid, sulphuric acid, diluted sulphur trioxide and sulfamic acid. The long length of the alkyl chain makes it able to form different formulations when mixed with other salts. Sulphonic acid is a low-volume synthetic surfactant that is available at a low cost. It is used for the production of various emulsifiers and detergents for use in households, dishwashing and as well as mercerizing and cleaning agents in the textile industry. The increased use of LABSA increases the surface area of distempers. This is why it is used as a wetting agent and an emulsifier.
