Product Overview
Linear alkyl benzene (LAB) is the primary feedstock sulphonated to LABSA for laundry and cleaning surfactants. Drashti Chemicals lists LAB under the inorganic-chemicals category for site navigation, but chemically it is an organic aromatic hydrocarbon intermediate — not a mineral salt, not a builder, not a finished detergent active.
Honesty matters for SEO and for plant safety: treating LAB like “just another inorganic bag” mis-sets PPE, storage and GST expectations. We supply LAB as a stockist liquid path (drums/tanker as quoted) with COA covering the chain-length / quality markers your sulphonation unit specifies.
If your unit does not sulphonate, you usually need LABSA or other finished surfactants (SLES, etc.), not LAB. Buying feedstock without reactor capacity creates stranded inventory. Use our detergent & surfactants catalog when you need the sulphonated molecule.
RFQ fields that actually help: preferred carbon-number band, brom index / quality notes from your last successful lot, monthly KL, and pack type. We do not publish list prices; WhatsApp the desk from Vadodara for a documented offer.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is LAB an inorganic chemical?
No. Linear alkyl benzene is an organic surfactant feedstock. It appears in our inorganic-chemicals category for catalog navigation — chemistry and handling are hydrocarbon, not salt.
Do you supply LAB for detergent sulphonation from Vadodara?
Yes as a stockist path. Share chain-length preference and pack (drum/tanker) on WhatsApp — COA with the lot.
LAB vs LABSA vs SLES?
LAB is the feedstock; LABSA is the sulphonated active; SLES is a different ethoxylated sulphate surfactant. Buy the molecule your plant actually feeds.
Can I use LAB as a finished detergent active?
Not without sulphonation. Plants without sulphonation capacity should RFQ LABSA or other finished surfactants instead.
Are you a LAB manufacturer?
No. Vadodara supplier/stockist with documented lots.
