Dodecylbenzene (Laurylbenzene; 1-Phenyldodecane) (CAS: 123-01-3), is a precursor to sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate, a surfactant that is a key ingredient of household laundry detergents, such as Tide. It is a widely used cleaner, dyeing assistant in textile industrial, degrease agent in electroplate, leather, de- inking agent in papering, rubber and plastic, break emulsion agent in oil industry, artesian well foaming agent in oil well.
Dodecylbenzene belong to the long chain of linear alkyl benzene, has fragrant smell, can happen sulfonation reaction and acylation reaction and pyrolysis reaction, is a major intermediates in the production of detergent, by linear alkyl benzene synthesis of linear alkyl benzene sulfonic acid sodium has excellent surface activity, the decontamination ability and biodegradable properties.
Used as raw material for synthetic washing powder. It is used as a raw material for synthetic laundry detergents for the production of soft (biodegradable) detergents.
Dodecylbenzene is used as a raw material for synthetic laundry detergents and production of biodegradable detergents.
Aromatic hydrocarbons are generally toxic, and benzene has the strongest effect on central nervous system and blood. When with alkyl side chain, the stimulation of the mucosa and narcotic enhancement, but in vivo, because the side chain is first oxidized into alcohol and then into carboxylic acid, so the hematopoietic function is not damaged. During the production process, attention should be paid to protection, and the operator should wear protective equipment.
The container shall be packed with a tank car or iron drum, and be stored and transported according to the regulations for toxic and combustible products.
Vigorous reactions, sometimes amounting to explosions, can result from the contact between aromatic hydrocarbons, such as DODECYLBENZENE, and strong oxidizing agents. They can react exothermically with bases and with diazo compounds. Substitution at the benzene nucleus occurs by halogenation (acid catalyst), nitration, sulfonation, and the Friedel-Crafts reaction.
Liquid causes mild irritation of eyes and may cause allergenic responses on repeated contact with skin. Ingestion causes nausea.
