Manufacturing Process

This report comprises a thorough value chain evaluation for Triethanolamine Lauryl Sulfate manufacturing and consists of an in-depth production cost analysis revolving around industrial Triethanolamine Lauryl Sulfate manufacturing.

• By Sulfation: The feedstock for this process includes chlorosulfonic acid, lauryl alcohol, and triethanolamine.

The manufacturing of triethanolamine lauryl sulfate involves a sulfation reaction. In this reaction, dodecyl alcohol goes through sulfation in the presence of chlorosulfonic acid to form a sulfonic acid intermediate. After this, the intermediate reacts with triethanolamine to neutralize it, forming triethanolamine lauryl sulfate. The product is then separated and purified to get pure triethanolamine lauryl sulfate as the final product.
