What is Sulfonic Acid (LABSA)
What is sulfonic acid uses:
It is also known by other names such as linear alkyl benzene sulfonic acid or LABSA. This product is used as a surfactant in the detergent industry. This product is also known as a factor in the activation of detergents and one of the most widely used products in the production of detergent powder. This material is in the form of solution, absorbent and inactive, which is also a kind of emulsifier in the additive.
Sulphonic acid is also an organosulfur compound that contains organic alkyl and sulfonyl hydroxide. This product is also produced through sulfonation to a substance called sulfur trioxide. This product is also used as a strong acid that causes corrosion. To prevent corrosion and other damages, this product should be prevented from being exposed to other materials.

What is the physical properties of sulfonic acids:
Due to its strong property and high corrosion, it is compared to other acids such as benzoic acid and acetic acid, and as a non-oxidizing substance, it will dissolve easily in water. This product is also one of the most important detergents, which is used in polar and non-polar forms in chemical compounds and has high properties in foam production and cleanliness.
sulfonic acid uses
The structure of sulfonic acid contains two parts, one is polar and hydrophilic, which reacts with water molecules. The other part of this substance is hydrophobic and non-polar, which contains a benzene ring. Through the trapping of non-polar molecules, stains and grease are separated. Sulfonic acid is also used as a type of surfactant used in detergent powder, shampoo, dishwashing liquid and laundry industries.
Since the structure of this product is used to remove stains from dishes and clothes, it can separate contaminated molecules. This product is also used in water purification in a way that it will be used in many applications in detergent products and as a kind of surfactant.
