  • Applications

    The dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid, triethanolamine salt (CAS 27323-41-7) acts as an anionic surfactant and processing aid. In real-world use, it is employed in detergents and household/industrial cleaners; as an emulsifier and dispersant in polymers, paints, coatings, and inks; as a wetting and dispersing agent in textile processing (dyeing and finishing); as a formulation aid in agricultural products (emulsifier for pesticide formulations); and in personal care products such as shampoos and cleansers.
