Structural formula

nature
Appearance (1), liquid.
Solubility: soluble in water.
Stability Stable.
Dangerous liquid form: irritation. It is moderately irritating to skin and eyes.
GHS (eighth revised edition) label:
Ecology may be harmful to the environment, and special attention should be paid to water bodies.
Biodegradability Degradable.
Features Excellent decontamination, foaming, emulsification, dispersion, wetting and solubilization properties.
Special matters (1) Can not be used in personal care products.
(2) Can not be used in nitrite environment. Diethanolamine reacts with nitrous acid to produce nitrosamines, which is a carcinogen.
Manufacturing method and process
The sulfonation reaction through continuous reactors (such as falling film reactors) is currently the most widely used method for preparing sulfonates.
Usually, dodecylbenzene and sulfur trioxide are sulfonated through a reactor and obtained by neutralization with diethanolamine.
In this process, raw materials such as sulfur trioxide and alkylbenzenes are reacted in a falling film reactor at a molar ratio of 1:1 at a temperature of 30-60°C.
