Molecular formula :: C7H7NaO3S
Molecular weight :: 194.18
CAS NO:: 657-84-1
Application :
It is used as a hydrotrope and viscosity modifier in detergent formulations which helps in reducing viscosity of Linear Alkyl Benzene Sulphonic Acid (L.A.B.S).
This can be incorporated in Alpha Olefin Sulphonate (AOS) and linear alkyl
benzene Sulphonate slurry at a concentration ranging from 3 - 5 % making the
liquid formulation clear, more effective, cheaper and would make dry detergent
powder, free flowing and crisp.
As anticaking and antiblocking agent in powdered products such as powder
detergents.
To increase solid contents of products during liquid drying processes.
To improve detergent performance properties in washing.
As solubilizer, coupling agent and processing aids in detergent manufacture
and other industrial processes.
It is capable of converting two phase system into homogeneous mixtures,
lowering the ingredients, crystallization temperature and reducing the
viscosity of liquid and complex formulations.
It gives excellent water tolerance to the detergent.
