Sodium Petroleum Sulfonate Production Cost Reports

Sodium Petroleum Sulfonate production cost report provides a comprehensive analysis and know-how for setting up a Sodium Petroleum Sulfonate production plant. The study covers all the requisite aspects that one needs to know for the production of Sodium Petroleum Sulfonate. This includes manufacturing processes, raw material requirements, utility requirements, infrastructure requirements, machinery and technology requirements, manpower requirements, packaging requirements, transportation requirements, etc.

Sodium Petroleum Sulfonate is a petroleum-based sodium salt prepared by sulfonation and neutralization of petroleum oil. It is a brown-colored semi-transparent fluid with a mild characteristic odor. Its chemical formula is RSO3Na, where R-represents an alkyl group. The compound comprises a sulfonate ion attached to a sodium atom, and its molecular weight is 500 g/cm3.

It is a volatile, flammable chemical fluid and its boiling point is measured above 150 °C. It is combustible in nature and its flash point is measured approximately above 160 °C. It is a petroleum-based fluid with a slight solubility in water. However, it can be dissolved in mineral oils and other chemical solvents. The compound remains stable under standard temperature but is volatile when heated. Sodium Petroleum Sulfonate decomposes on heating, while excessive heat may cause combustion.

It is a chemical emulsifier and chemical additive that can be included in the production of oil varieties, coating chemicals, lubricants, fuels, and more. The compound is majorly associated with textile, metal, petrochemical, coating, and dyestuff industries. It serves as an additive in the preparation of fuel. It can also be included as an emulsifier for producing soluble cutting oil, fat liquor, etc.

Sodium Petroleum Sulfonate is also used as a fluid component in the formulation of different oil-based coating chemicals, including printing inks, metal coating chemicals, and leather tanning and processing fluids. It has the ability to prevent rust and corrosion and, hence, is included in producing metal coating chemicals on a large scale. Additionally, it acts as a degreasing and lubricating additive in oil-based lubricants.

The market for Sodium Petroleum Sulfonate is strengthened by its demand as an oil-based sodium salt in the chemical industry (covering dyestuff, fuels, petrochemical, and textile sectors). Its wide-range application as an oil additive in the production of petroleum-based products, including fuels, lubricants, coating, and dye chemicals, boosts its demand in the global market. Its involvement in the production of such varieties of petrochemical and coating fluids contributes to its market growth.

Its procurement is largely governed by its demand in the metal, textile and leather industries. Its application in the preparation of tanning chemicals, metal coating chemicals, and dyestuffs also adds to its demand strengthens its market. These applications of Sodium Petroleum Sulfonate drive its demand as an oil-based fluid additive and significantly impact its overall procurement across the globe.
