China and India are the leading exporters of Sodium α-olefinsulfonate (CAS 72674-05-6), accounting for the majority of global shipments, while the United States, Germany, and Mexico represent the largest importers. Imports into the U.S. and EU have remained relatively stable since 2022, with modest growth observed in Southeast Asian demand; Sodium α-olefinsulfonate prices have shown limited volatility amid steady supply from key Asian producers.
Sodium α-olefinsulfonate is a white to off-white, hygroscopic solid or paste, typically supplied as an aqueous solution; it is non-volatile and has no characteristic odor. It is classified as an anionic surfactant and organic sulfonate salt, synthesized via sulfonation of linear α-olefins followed by neutralization. Primarily used as a high-performance surfactant, it serves as a key ingredient in liquid and powdered household and industrial detergents, personal care formulations (e.g., shampoos and body washes), and emulsion polymerization systems. Its applications span cleaning products, textile auxiliaries, enhanced oil recovery formulations, and as a wetting and dispersing agent in agrochemical concentrates.
