MIPA-dodecylbenzenesulfonate

MIPA-dodecylbenzenesulfonate (CAS 54590-52-2 ) is an anionic surfactant produced by neutralizing dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid with monoisopropanolamine. It functions as a primary surfactant and emulsifier in liquid cleaning and personal care formulations. This chemical delivers excellent foam generation, soil removal, and stable emulsification across various industrial applications. In home care and industrial cleaning, it serves as the active base in liquid dish soaps and hard surface cleaners. It is particularly useful in heavy-duty degreasers where high-flash-point formulations are preferred over sodium-neutralized alternatives. Personal care formulators incorporate it into shampoos and body washes for better performance. In these cosmetic applications, the amine-neutralized form contributes to viscosity response and mildness balance. Textile processing operations use it as a scouring and wetting agent to remove oils and sizing agents from fabric. This process is essential prior to dyeing to ensure uniform color application. In leather processing, it supports degreasing baths where controlled emulsification of natural fats is required before the tanning stage. MIPA-dodecylbenzenesulfonate is typically supplied as a viscous amber liquid for industrial use. Active content is commonly offered at concentrations around 90%, though diluted grades are available depending on requirements. No established food-grade, USP , or pharmacopoeial specifications apply to this specific surfactant. Supply is primarily restricted to technical and industrial grades for manufacturing and processing sectors. Contact us for supply of MIPA-dodecylbenzenesulfonate Request Quote
