Global Cationic Surfactants Market Demand & Forecast Analysis, 2016-2032

Executive Summary : - 

Surfactants or surface active agents are organic compounds which enhances the properties of water-based solutions. Manufacturing of surfactants is usually from petroleum derivatives but can also be produced from natural raw materials. Surfactants contain a hydrophilic group [such as an acid anion (-CO2 or -SO3 )] and a hydrophobic group [such as alkyl chain]. Functioning of surfactants works in a way which involves breaking down the interface between water & oils or/and dirt. Molecules of water form a cluster around the hydrophilic group whereas the molecules which are insoluble in water (such as oil or/and dirt) tend to form a cluster around hydrophobic group. Thus, they form a fundamental compound in the manufacturing of detergent. Properties such as cleaning efficiency, wetting, dispersing, foaming/defoaming, lubricity, emulsifying, and solvency of water-based solutions increases with the addition of surfactants.

Surfactants are also segmented on the basis of opposed polarity and/or different charges into four types:

• Anionic
• Non-ionic
• Cationic
• Amphoteric
