About LAB

---

Linear Alkylbenzene (LAB) is a key petrochemical intermediate widely used in the production of Linear Alkylbenzene Sulfonate (LAS), the most common surfactant employed in household and industrial detergents. Due to its excellent biodegradability, high performance, and cost efficiency, LAB has become the preferred raw material for detergent manufacturers worldwide.

SIMONTCO supplies high-quality LAB sourced from reliable petrochemical producers, supporting detergent, surfactant, and specialty chemical manufacturers across international markets. Our LAB is produced through modern alkylation processes using linear paraffins, ensuring consistent molecular structure, stable quality, and compliance with global industry requirements.

Key Applications of LAB

Linear Alkylbenzene is primarily used in:

• Household detergents (laundry powders and liquids)
• Industrial and institutional cleaners
• Dishwashing formulations
• Textile and leather processing chemicals
• Emulsifiers and wetting agents

Thanks to its strong detergency, chemical stability, and environmental compatibility, LAB remains an essential feedstock for both mass-market and specialty surfactant formulations.
