Product Definition:
Linear Alkyl Benzene Sulphonic Acid is a colorless to light yellow liquid. It is soluble in water and has a characteristic odor. Linear Alkyl Benzene Sulphonic Acid is used as an acidulant, emulsifier, and wetting agent in cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and other products.
LABSA 96%:
LABSA 96% is a specialty chemical, which is used as an intermediate in the production of various chemicals and pharmaceuticals. It has96% purity and it's a clear colorless liquid with no distinctive odor.
LABSA 90%:
LABSA 90% is a specialty anion exchanger which is used for the separation of anions and cations in liquid streams. It consists of a bed of sulfonic acid coated with zirconia particles. The product has high efficiency, low reagent cost & operating costs, and good recovery rate making it suitable for use in various applications such as waste water treatment, desalination plants or industrial processes.
Application Insights:
Detergent was the largest application segment in 2017 and is projected to witness significant growth over the forecast period. The rising demand for LABSA from detergents, sanitizers, and cleaners is expected to drive market growth. Global linear alkyl benzene sulfonic acid market by application: Detergent (LABSA 96%, LABSA 90%), Emulsifier (LAB), Coupling Agent (LAB), Other applications include corrosion inhibitors, plasticizers, dispersants and wetting agents among others.
The product finds extensive use as an emulsifier in oil-in-water type of emulsions used in paints & coatings industry owing to its high foaming properties which aid in enhancing the stability of oil droplets during polymerization reaction.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific is expected to be the largest and fastest-growing regional market over the forecast period. The growth of this region can be attributed to increasing product demand from detergent, emulsifier, and coupling agent applications. Detergent usage in various end-use industries such as automotive, industrial cleaning & maintenance, food processing is projected to drive LABSA demand in Asia Pacific over the next eight years.
North America emerged as a major consumer due to stringent regulations on environmental pollution coupled with rising awareness regarding sustainable chemical manufacturing processes among consumers and manufacturers of household products. North America was followed by Europe which accounted for a share of more than 20% in 2017 owing to high product consumption from detergent application segment mainly driven by rising consumer disposable income levels coupled with growing investments for production expansion purposes especially within Eastern European countries such as Russia and Poland.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand from end-use industries such as textiles, detergents, and personal care products
- Rising awareness about the benefits of using LABSA over other anionic surfactants
- Growing investments in research and development to develop new applications for LABSA
- Expansion of production capacities by key players to meet the rising demand for LABSA globally
