The Linear Alkyl Benzene Market is set to show a growth rate of about 4.56% during the forecast period (2025-2033F).
Linear alkyl benzene is an organic compound derived from the alkylation process of benzene with alkenes. It is a non-corrosive, biodegradable, colorless, oily liquid with a mild odor. Linear alkylbenzene sulfonate (LAS), a synthetic surfactant, is obtained from the sulfonation of linear alkylbenzene. LAS is widely used in the manufacturing of soaps and household cleaning agents due to its emulsifying, foaming, and cleansing characteristics. Other than household products, it is used in oilfield chemicals and the textile industries. Compared to alternative sulphonates, LABs are available at a low cost due to the abundance of their raw material.
Global demand for biodegradable products is increasing, which contributes to the growth of the linear alkyl benzene market. Its derivative, linear alkylbenzene sulphonate (LAS), is used in the formulation of detergents, soaps, and household cleansing agents. The LAS can be obtained from either process: HF-alkylation or DETAL technology. Out of these two, DETAL technology is the popular one because it avoids using hazardous products. Instead of using liquid hydrofluoric acid, it uses a solid acid catalyst. Furthermore, due to its amphiphilic molecular structure, which reduces surface tension, the textile industry is adopting it, thereby driving the growth of the linear alkyl benzene market.
