Product Overview
Alpha olefin sulphonate (AOS) liquid from Drashti Chemicals, Vadodara is an anionic surfactant stocked for detergent powder slurries, laundry liquids, dish wash, and industrial scrub formulations across Gujarat’s detergent belt. Buyers judge lots on active matter, colour (APHA), pH, and unsulphonated matter on the COA — not on generic catalog purity lines. We are a Vadsar stockist/supplier with batch COA and MSDS; WhatsApp RFQ for bulk — no public list prices under GST 24AGLPC6288M1ZX.
Formulation choice: AOS vs SLES vs LABSA-derived paste vs SLS powder/liquid. AOS brings strong foam and hard-water tolerance in laundry liquids; SLES is milder for skin contact products; LABSA acid slurry neutralised to paste is the cost backbone of many powder plants; SLS powder suits dry mix and high-foam institutional cleaners where ethoxylation is not required. Drashti stocks the whole slate so procurement does not split vendors for surfactant baskets.
In spray-dried powder, AOS is often part of the surfactant slurry before the tower; in liquids it dilutes into the water phase with builders, viscosity modifiers, and preservative per your SOP. Store drums sealed; heat and age can darken colour and affect clear-product SKUs. HDPE day tanks and IBC paths are common from our Vadodara dispatch to Ahmedabad, Rajkot, and Vapi detergent clusters.
Packaging runs HDPE drums and IBCs with MOQ commonly from 50 kg on trial paths. Match incumbent supplier COA fields on the RFQ — we will not silently substitute SLES or LABSA paste where your QC sheet names AOS active.
WhatsApp monthly kg, active % target, and colour limit. If you are reformulating from SLS liquid to AOS for hard-water dish wash, say so — foam profile and salt tolerance change and lab sign-off should precede the PO.

Frequently Asked Questions
Where can I buy AOS liquid in Vadodara for detergent manufacture?
Drashti Chemicals stocks alpha olefin sulphonate (AOS) liquid from Vadsar, Vadodara with batch COA and MSDS. WhatsApp active % and monthly drum quantity for a documented quote — we do not publish list prices.
AOS vs SLES — which surfactant should our laundry liquid use?
AOS is often chosen for hard-water foam and cost in laundry; SLES is milder and common in personal wash. Many plants use both in different SKUs. Share your formula target and we quote the surfactant that matches your COA, not a blind swap.
AOS vs LABSA acid slurry?
LABSA acid slurry is neutralised on your floor to paste for powder and low-cost liquids; AOS arrives as finished liquid active. Acid slurry wins on rupee per wash in many powder lines; AOS wins on handling and hard-water foam in liquids.
