Description:
Sulphonic Acid, also known as Linear Alkylbenzene Sulphonic Acid (LABSA), is an organic compound widely used in various industries, including the manufacturing of cleaning and detergent products. LABSA is a brown viscous liquid with strong acid properties. It is primarily used as a surfactant and cleaning agent due to its excellent emulsifying, foaming, and detergency properties. In skincare products, LABSA is used in smaller concentrations as a cleansing and foaming agent. It helps to remove dirt, oil, and impurities from the skin, leaving it clean and refreshed. LABSA is considered safe for use in skincare formulations when used within the recommended concentrations.
Benefits:
- Provides effective cleansing by removing dirt, oil, and impurities from the skin
- Creates rich and stable foam for a luxurious and satisfying cleansing experience
- Helps to emulsify and suspend oil and water-based ingredients in formulations
Usage: Sulphonic Acid (LABSA) is used as an ingredient in skincare products for its cleansing and foaming properties. It is typically incorporated into formulations such as cleansers, face washes, body washes, and shampoos. The specific usage level of LABSA should be determined based on the desired foaming and cleansing efficacy.
Solubility: LABSA is soluble in water and forms stable and homogeneous solutions when properly incorporated into skincare formulations.
Applications:
- Shampoos: Both regular and clarifying shampoos
- Body washes: Shower gels, body washes.
Storage: Store LABSA in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources. Keep the container tightly closed to prevent moisture absorption. Proper storage conditions will help maintain the stability and effectiveness of LABSA over time.
