Market Overview:
The global alkylbenzene sulfonate market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% from 2018 to 2030. The growth in the market can be attributed to the increasing demand for detergents and other applications across the globe. Alkylbenzene sulfonates are used as surfactants in various end-use industries such as detergents, textiles, paints & coatings, and others. They are also used as intermediates for manufacturing other products such as linear alkylbenzene sulfonate (LAS), branched alkylbenzene sulfonate (BAS), and others. Based on type, the global alkylbenzene sulfonate market is segmented into linear alkylbenzene sulfonate (LAS) and branched alkylbenzene sulfonate (BAS). LAS is a dominant product segment owing to its high demand from end-use industries such as detergents, textiles, paints & coatings, and others. BAS is projected to grow at a higher CAGR during the forecast period due to its growing demand from emerging countries in Asia Pacific region.
Product Definition:
An alkylbenzene sulfonate is an organosulfur compound that consists of a benzene ring substituted with one or more alkyl groups. Alkylbenzene sulfonates are used as surfactants, detergents, and emulsifiers.
Linear Alkylbenzene Sulfonate:
Linear alkylbenzene sulfonate (LAS) is a colorless liquid with an odor similar to gasoline. It is primarily used as a dispersant in oil paints and as an additive in engine cleaners, insecticides, and detergents.
Branched Alkylbenzene Sulfonate:
Branched Alkylbenzene Sulfonate (BAS) is a white crystalline compound, soluble in water and ethanol. It has an odor similar to that of gasoline. BAS is manufactured by the sulfonylation of aromatic compounds with branched alkyl benzene in presence of sodium methoxide or sulfuric acid as a catalyst.
Application Insights:
The detergent application segment led the global market and accounted for more than 45% of the total revenue share in 2017. The growth of this segment is attributed to rising demand from various detergent manufacturers around the world. Detergents are used across a wide range of applications including household cleaning, industrial washing, mining process washdowns, automotive washes and food processing industries.
The product has excellent foaming properties which make it suitable for use in dishwashing liquids as well as laundry pre-soaps. These soaps enhance soil removal during laundry washing at high temperatures without causing damage to fabrics or colors fading caused by exposure to sunlight or oxygenated water.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific was the largest regional market in 2017 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The region accounts for a major share of global production owing to cheap labor, raw material availability, and technological advancement. China is one of the leading producers as well as consumers of alkylbenzene sulfonate in this region. Increasing demand from detergent application segment due to rising consumer awareness regarding hygiene & safety coupled with growing purchasing power is projected to drive growth over the next eight years.
North America emerged as a prominent regional market for alkylbenzene sulfonate in 2017 owing to high consumption from detergent application sector mainly followed by laundry care products such as fabric softeners, stain removers,.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand from end-use industries such as textiles, detergents, and personal care products
- Rising awareness about the benefits of using ABS among consumers
- Growing investments by manufacturers in research and development to improve the quality of ABS products
- Expansion of distribution networks by key players to reach a wider customer base
- Emergence of new applications for ABS in various end-use industries
