Linear Alkyl Benzene Market Analysis, Market Size,
Application Analysis, Regional Outlook, Competitive
Strategies And Forecasts, 2012 To 2020

Growing cleaners and detergents demand in end-use industries and residential application is expected
to fuel the global linear alkyl benzene market over the next five years. Strict governmental regulations
regarding non-biodegradable materials usage is also anticipated to spur the market growth over the
forecast period. Linear alkyl benzene is manufactured from oligomerization of ethylene and is a colorless
organic compound. Kerosene is the major raw material for the LAB production and is formed as a coproduct during kerosene dehydrogenation process.
Most significant importance of the product is biodegradability. The product is mainly used to produce
linear alkylbenzene sulfonate (LAS). LAS are primarily used to manufacture detergents. LAB in its original
form is also used to produce detergents. LAB comprises optimum light yield, low radioactive impurities,
high flash points and optical transparency. On account of high flash point the product is also used to
produce neutrino detectors.
