The biodegradable and cost-effective substance offers high solubility, emulsifying, moistening, foaming, and dispersing properties with other additives. It also acts as an emulsifying, refining, and coupling and emulsifier in rubber, textile, and agricultural herbicides industry, respectively. Moreover, it is used in emulsion polymerization and as an industrial wetting agent.
Market Overview:The latest research study on the global Linear Alkylbenzene Sulphonate (LAS) market finds that the global Linear Alkylbenzene Sulphonate (LAS) market reached a value of USD 6448.82 million in 2022. It’s expected that the market will achieve USD 8321.6 million by 2028, exhibiting a CAGR of 4.34% during the forecast period.
Challenges
The LAS entering the water, when the concentration is very low, will produce foam. When a large amount of foam is generated, the gas exchange between the water and the atmosphere is hindered, resulting in deterioration of water quality. When the surfactant entering the wastewater of the sewage treatment plant reaches a certain concentration, it will affect aeration, sedimentation, sludge nitrification and other processes. When the drinking water contains too much surfactant, there will be bad smell and smell, and it will be greasy. sense. At the same time, LAS enters the human body and it will produce a great toxic effect, which will affect the activity of the enzyme and disturb the normal metabolism of human beings.
