Linear Alkylbenzene Sulfonic Acid 96% - Export Sourcing Candidate
Buyer-facing sourcing candidate for Linear Alkylbenzene Sulfonic Acid (LABSA) 96%. The source page title references LABSA 96%, but the extracted page specifications contain inconsistent and unrelated chemical entries. Overseas buyers should require CAS confirmation, current COA, SDS, DG classification, impurity profile, and export documents before RFQ acceptance.

Product name to verify: Linear Alkylbenzene Sulfonic Acid / LABSA
CAS to verify with supplier: commonly referenced as CAS 27176-87-0, but must be confirmed on COA and SDS
Concentration / active matter: 96% claimed in raw title; request batch COA confirmation
Appearance: typically viscous brown liquid; supplier must confirm actual appearance and specification limits
Grade: page lists reagent-grade terms, but title suggests industrial/cosmetic detergent raw material; clarify intended grade
Acid value / active matter: request test method and batch result
Free oil / unsulfonated matter: request limit and batch result
Free sulfuric acid: request limit and batch result
Color: request Klett / Hazen / supplier method result if applicable
Water content: request batch result and test method
Iron or heavy metals: request if required for personal-care or regulated downstream use
Odor and insoluble matter: request if relevant to formulation requirements

Package and route
Packing notes
Confirm standard export packing for LABSA 96%, such as plastic drums, IBC tanks, or ISO tank options if available
Request net weight, gross weight, palletization, container loading quantity, and package photos
Confirm whether inner liner, venting, corrosion-compatible packaging, and sealing method are suitable for acidic liquid cargo
Ask whether samples are available and whether sample packaging follows carrier and DG requirements
Confirm shelf life, production date, batch number format, and storage statement as listed on COA/SDS
Request export marks, label language, GHS label availability, and consignee-specific documentation support
Applications and sourcing options
Check whether this product fits the buyer's actual application.
Clear application, grade, package, and document notes help separate real sourcing demand from a vague price check.

How we compare
Sourcing options
Request verified LABSA 96% COA and SDS before price negotiation
Ask for both standard drum and IBC quotations with full landed-cost packing details
Require a pre-shipment sample from the same production batch if quality validation is needed
Use third-party inspection for first order due to inconsistent source-page specifications
Compare against alternate LABSA suppliers with clearer CAS, DG, and impurity documentation
Confirm freight availability for corrosive liquid cargo before issuing purchase order
Human review
Compliance notes
The page data is inconsistent: title states LABSA 96%, while extracted specification sections reference unrelated products such as 2-Ethylhexanoyl, Dimethomorph, and 4,6-Dihydroxypyrimidine. Treat as unverified until supplier provides product-specific documents
Require product-specific SDS, COA, TDS/specification sheet, commercial invoice, packing list, certificate of origin, and bill of lading draft before shipment
DG status must be verified against the supplier SDS and transport route. LABSA is commonly treated as corrosive for transport, but classification must not be assumed without current SDS
Confirm UN number, hazard class, packing group, marine pollutant status, HS code, and export control status with supplier and freight forwarder
Do not rely on marketplace category labels such as 'Non-Dangerous Goods' unless supported by SDS and carrier acceptance
For cosmetic or hair-care supply chains, request allergen/impurity statements, heavy metal limits, residual solvent statement if applicable, and compliance declarations required by the destination market
Check whether the supplier is the actual manufacturer or trading company and whether third-party inspection or pre-shipment sampling is available
No regulatory guarantee is implied; buyer must validate suitability for destination-market requirements and end-use regulations
