Linear Alkyl Benzene Sulphonic Acid (LABSA) Technical Grade

Linear Alkyl Benzene Sulphonic Acid (LABSA) is an oily liquid surfactant widely used as a raw material in manufacturing household detergents and industrial cleaning agents. Its sulfonic acid group provides excellent detergent properties, especially in removing oily and particulate soils. Due to its biodegradability, LABSA is preferred in environmentally conscious formulations. In industrial applications, LABSA serves as a precursor to linear alkyl benzene sulfonates (LAS), popular for laundry powders, dishwashing liquids, and surface cleaners. Its role is critical in granular and liquid detergent formulations for effective emulsifying and foaming. Handling LABSA requires attention to corrosivity; it should be stored in corrosion-resistant containers and protected from moisture. Finstar supplies technical grade LABSA in bulk drums that meet standardized industrial chemical regulations, with batch documentation and COA available on request. The product is distributed with swift availability for procurement teams in Kenya and neighboring regions, enabling manufacturers to maintain consistent production cycles. Proper storage under cool, dry conditions extends product stability and performance after delivery. Finstar Chemicals commits to supporting clients with tailored logistics and compliance advisory for LABSA use, ensuring secure, uninterrupted supply for detergent and cleaning chemical manufacturers.
