Dodecylbenzenesulfonic Acid
Chemax ABS Acid is a light to dark brown liquid emulsifier from PCC Chemax formulated with a dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid (DBSA) base. It delivers effective emulsification, wetting, and dispersion, making it suitable for various industrial formulations, including cleaning and washing agents.
Without effective emulsifiers, wetting agents, and dispersants, cleaning formulations can split and form unstable emulsions and provide insufficient detergency or stain removal, particularly on hydrophobic or porous surfaces.
