Acid Slurry (LABSA ~90%) — Bulk Tanker, Vadodara

Acid slurry (LABSA — linear alkyl benzene sulphonic acid slurry) from Drashti Chemicals Vadodara is the primary anionic feed for Indian detergent powder, cake, and paste plants before caustic neutralisation. Active acid matter typically runs in the high-nineties percent range on industrial COAs; colour and free acid control how your neutralised paste looks in the slurry mixer.

Formulation economics: neutralised LABSA paste competes on cost-per-wash against blends that add AOS liquid, SLES, or SLS powder for foam boost. Many spray-dry formulas use LABSA-derived active as the backbone plus a secondary surfactant — the secondary is where AOS or SLES enters, not as a blind replacement for acid slurry without lab work.

Safety and materials: pH 1–2 class slurry — acid-resistant PPE, HDPE piping, and controlled caustic neutralisation on the floor. Never store in unlined mild steel. Spill response follows MSDS; plants in Ankleshwar, Vapi, and Ahmedabad detergent corridors run this chemistry daily — documentation must match your EHS file.

Drums and bulk paths from Vadsar with COA and MSDS. MOQ commonly from 100 kg. Share spray-dry vs agglomeration and target active in finished paste so we size drum turnover against your tower throughput.

RFQ with % active acid, colour limit, and monthly volume. If you need finished shampoo paste instead of acid feed, pivot to S-L-E-S or sls-paste — acid slurry is the wrong SKU for direct cosmetic filling.
