Dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid diethanolamine salt

Description:

Dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid diethanolamine salt is an organic compound that belongs to the class of sulfonic acids and is characterized by its amphiphilic nature, which allows it to function effectively as a surfactant. This compound features a long hydrophobic dodecyl chain and a hydrophilic sulfonate group, making it useful in various applications, including detergents, emulsifiers, and dispersants. The presence of diethanolamine in its structure enhances its solubility in water and contributes to its ability to stabilize emulsions. Dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid diethanolamine salt is typically a viscous liquid or solid at room temperature, depending on its formulation and concentration. It is known for its effectiveness in reducing surface tension and improving wetting properties, which makes it valuable in industrial cleaning and formulation processes. Additionally, it is important to handle this compound with care, as it may cause irritation to skin and eyes, and appropriate safety measures should be taken during its use.
