Features Of Solvay Rhodacal A 246 PF Sodium Alkylbenzenesulfonate Anionic Surfactant

  1. High foaming performance with excellent foam stability in hard water conditions.

  2. Superior detergency and soil removal across a broad pH range (pH 5–11).

  3. Good compatibility with nonionic surfactants, enzymes, and builders in formulated systems.

  4. Low-foam variant optimized for automatic dishwashing and industrial CIP applications.

  5. Sulfonate chemistry provides enhanced biodegradability compared to traditional LAS grades.

Typical Applications Of Solvay Rhodacal A 246 PF Sodium Alkylbenzenesulfonate Anionic Surfactant

  1. Automatic dishwashing detergents (ADW) — particularly low-foam rinse-aid and tablet formulations.

  2. Industrial and institutional (I&I) cleaning products including floor cleaners and degreasers.

  3. Hard surface cleaners for food processing, healthcare, and pharmaceutical facilities.

  4. Cleaning-in-place (CIP) formulations requiring controlled foaming and high solubility at elevated temperatures.

  5. Specialty laundry additives where low residue and high rinse efficiency are critical.
