Albany, NY -- (SBWire) -- 11/02/2018 --Sulfonates are metallic salts or esters of sulfonic acids. They are viscous amber liquids that are insoluble in water. Naphthalene is an aromatic hydrocarbon with chemical formula of C10H8. It is a white crystalline volatile solid with a characteristic penetrating odor. It is used in the production of various products including dyes, pharmaceuticals, and insect repellents. Naphthalene sulfonate is a derivative of sulfonic acid that contains naphthalene as a functional unit.

Naphthalene sulfonate possesses excellent wetting and dispersing properties. Naphthalene sulfonates can be used in water-based cleaners such as automatic dishwashing detergents, carpet shampoos, and industrial detergents, as they offer acid and base stability, hard-water tolerance, and high temperature stability. They are also used as dispersants in wide applications such as textile chemicals, leather tanning, cements, emulsion polymerization, pigments and dyestuffs, photographic solutions, agricultural formulations, and pesticide formulations.
The global naphthalene sulfonate market is primarily driven by the increase in demand for naphthalene sulfonates in building & construction industry. Growth in investments in the building & construction industry is also augmenting the consumption patterns of naphthalene sulfonate. Naphthalene sulfonates exhibit excellent dispersing properties. Increase in usage of naphthalene sulfonate as a dispersing agent in the agriculture industry is estimated to boost the market. Furthermore, rise in adoption rate of naphthalene sulfonate in the textile industry is projected to offer lucrative opportunities to the naphthalene sulfonate market. Naphthalene sulfonates are likely to be used in the production of colorful dyes and pigments in the textile industry. However, the toxic nature of naphthalene sulfonate and fluctuation in prices of raw material (crude oil) are projected to hamper the naphthalene sulfonate market.
