Surfactants are a type of chemical compound used in a variety of industries, including personal care, cleaning, and industrial applications. They are used to reduce the surface tension of liquids, allowing them to mix more easily with other substances. Surfactants are also used to increase the solubility of oils and other hydrophobic substances in water.
Surfactants are typically classified according to their chemical structure, such as anionic, cationic, nonionic, and amphoteric. Anionic surfactants are the most widely used, and are often used in detergents, shampoos, and other cleaning products. Cationic surfactants are used in fabric softeners, and nonionic surfactants are used in cosmetics and personal care products. Amphoteric surfactants are used in a variety of applications, including industrial cleaning and emulsification.
The surfactants market is highly competitive, with many large companies competing for market share. Some of the major players in the market include BASF, Dow Chemical, Clariant, Evonik Industries, AkzoNobel, Solvay, and Stepan Company. Show Less Read more
