Global Linear alkylbenzene Market Research Report
- Report Code: LI 1000
- Publish Date: Upcoming
Linear alkylbenzene (LAB) is a vital ingredient for synthetic detergents. Nearly 98% of LAB production is used to manufacture linear alkylbenzene sulfonate (LAS), which is used in household synthetic detergents. The remaining 2% of the demand for LAB comes from other applications, such as agricultural herbicides, emulsion polymerization, wetting agents, electric cable oil, ink solvents, and the paint industry .The Global Linear alkylbenzene market was valued at $5,900.3 million in 2012, and is projected to reach $7,7707.0 million by 2018, at a CAGR of 4.7%, for the given period. This growth will be heavily driven by developing regions because of low penetration and low per capita expenditure on detergents.
Alkylbenzene is also known as detergent alkylate, and is converted to linear alkylbenzene sulfate (LAS), which is mainly used as a surfactant in detergents and cleaning products. Linear alkylbenzene is most commonly used as raw material in the production of biodegradable household detergents. It is mainly produced from n-paraffins, kerosene and benzene. A huge portion of alkylbenzene is converted to linear alkylbenzene sulfonate (LAS), which is an anionic surfactant used mainly in household laundry, cleaning products, and in some industrial applications. Heavy-duty laundry liquids principally utilized for commercial laundry purposes are the most dominant users of LAS. Alkylbenzene in small proportion is employed in the manufacture of ink, agricultural herbicides, paint industry, wetting agents and electric cable oil.
It is estimated that about 3,752.7 KT of alkylbenzene was consumed globally in 2012, and this demand is expected to reach 4,339.1 KT by 2018, at an estimated CAGR of about 2.5%, from 2013 to 2018. However, the overall market value of alkylbenzene was estimated at about $5,900.3 million in 2012 which is projected to reach a CAGR of 4.7% during the forecast period.
