Linear Sulfonic Acid
- Also known as:
- LABSA · Linear dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid · Linear sulfonic · Linear Sulfonic Acid (LABSA)
Anionic surfactant with high detergency and foaming power, the base of many liquid and powder detergents. It is neutralized with caustic soda or other bases to form the active sulfonate of the formula. It is a reference raw material for dishwashing detergents, multipurpose detergents and degreasers for household, institutional and veterinary facility cleaning use.

Nonionic surfactant derived from glucose and fatty alcohols, with a good biodegradability profile. It provides wetting and detergency with low harshness and is stable in strongly alkaline media. Used in cleaners with an eco-friendly positioning, alkaline degreasers, and personal care formulas.
Cocamide DEA
Cocamide DEA
Classic thickener and foam stabilizer for anionic surfactant systems. It provides body and superfatting to liquid detergents and dishwashing liquids, and helps maintain foam in the presence of greasy soil. Traditional raw material in cleaning, personal care and hygiene products for pharmaceutical and veterinary use.
Cocamine Oxide
Cocamine Oxide
Amine oxide-type surfactant derived from coconut fatty amines, of amphiphilic character. It boosts and stabilizes foam and adds viscosity in systems with anionic surfactants, and is used in hypochlorite formulations owing to its compatibility. It is used in household and surface cleaners, dishwashing liquids and personal care products.
Fatty Alcohol Ethoxylate
Nonionic surfactant with excellent wetting and degreasing power and low sensitivity to hard water. It is the base of industrial degreasers and liquid detergents aimed at greasy soils. Its nonionic character makes it easy to combine with anionic and cationic surfactants in the same formula.
