Detergent Grade Linear Alkyl Benzene CAS 67774-74-7 LABSA Precursor

Linear Alkyl Benzene (LAB, CAS:67774-74-7,EINECS:267-000-6, HS Code:29041000, molecular formula C₆H₅CₙH₂ₙ₊₁, n=10-13, MW:238-250) is a colorless to pale yellow transparent liquid with a characteristic aromatic odor. It is produced by alkylation of benzene with linear olefins (C10-C13) using advanced catalytic technology. We supply detergent grade (96-98% purity) and high purity grade (98-99% purity) specifications, complying with GB, ASTM and international detergent industry standards. This product is immiscible with water, soluble in organic solvents, and has a flash point above 130°C. As the primary raw material for linear alkylbenzene sulfonate (LABSA), it is the cornerstone of the global detergent and surfactant industry.

Applications
Detergent Industry (Core Application)
Primary feedstock for manufacturing linear alkylbenzene sulfonate (LABSA), the most widely used anionic surfactant in laundry powders, liquids, dishwashing detergents and industrial cleaners
Produces biodegradable surfactants (90%+ degradation under aerobic conditions) that replaced non-biodegradable branched alkylbenzenes
Enables high-performance cleaning with excellent foaming, emulsifying and stain-removing properties
Surfactant & Specialty Chemicals
Intermediate for producing various derivatives like LABSA, sulfonates, sulfates and ethoxylates
Used in emulsifiers, wetting agents, dispersants and solubilizers for industrial applications
Raw material for agricultural chemicals, textile auxiliaries and leather processing agents
Other Industrial Applications
Component in specialty lubricants, transformer oils and cable oils for electrical insulation
Solvent for oil-based paints, inks and coatings
Liquid scintillator in scientific research due to good optical transparency and high light yield

Product Advantages
✅ High sulfonatability: ≥97.5% sulfonatable substances ensure efficient LABSA production with minimal waste
✅ Dual grade supply: Detergent grade and high purity grade to meet diverse formulation requirements
✅ Excellent biodegradability: Straight-chain structure ensures rapid microbial breakdown, environmentally friendly
✅ Consistent quality: Strict batch testing guarantees stable bromine number, color and distillation range
✅ Cost-effective: High efficiency and low impurity content reduce downstream processing costs
✅ Global compliance: Meets international standards for detergent and surfactant manufacturing

Packaging & Storage
Standard packaging: 170kg/200kg galvanized iron drums, ISO tank containers (20-25 MT) for bulk shipments. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated warehouse at ambient temperature (5-35°C). Keep containers tightly sealed, away from heat sources, open flames, oxidants and strong acids. Avoid direct sunlight and moisture during transportation. Shelf life is 24 months under proper storage conditions.

Safety Information
Classified as combustible liquid (flash point >130°C) and aspiration hazard category 1. Low acute toxicity (oral LD50: 2,000-5,000 mg/kg in rats), may cause mild skin and eye irritation. Wear protective gloves, safety goggles and chemical-resistant clothing during handling. In case of eye/skin contact, rinse immediately with plenty of water for 15 minutes. If swallowed, do not induce vomiting, seek medical attention immediately. Complete MSDS and safety data available upon request.
