​​ ​​ α-Olefin sulfonate (AOS), also known as α-olefin sulfonate, refers to chemical substances with olefin hydroxysulfonate and disulfonate as the main components. Alpha-alkenesulfonate appears as a white to yellow crystalline powder with no special odor and is soluble in ethanol, glycerol, methanol and water. α-Alkenyl sulfonates have the advantages of low irritation, good biodegradability, easy hydrolysis, low toxicity, and good foaming properties. They can be used as surfactants and are widely used in the fields of daily chemicals, papermaking, and industrial cleaning. Broad application prospects.

The upstream of the α-alkenyl sulfonate industry chain supplies raw materials, including sulfur trioxide (SO3), α-olefins, etc. α-olefins are widely used in the production process of α-alkenyl sulfonate. my country’s α-olefin industry started late and is highly dependent on imports of high-end products. Ineos, Shell, Chevron, Japan’s Idemitsu, etc. are the main suppliers of high-end α-olefins in my country. Insufficient supply of raw materials has brought certain challenges to the development of my country’s α-alkenyl sulfonate industry.

The downstream of α-alkenyl sulfonate industry chain is the application field, and it can be used as anionic surfactant. Representative products of anionic surfactants include α-olefin sulfonate (AOS), alkyl benzene sulfonate (LAS), fatty alcohol ether sulfate (AES), etc. Compared with other products, α-alkenesulfonate has excellent comprehensive performance and is an emerging anionic surfactant product. In recent years, benefiting from the growth in market demand for anionic surfactants, the α-alkenyl sulfonate industry has continued to expand its development space. The global α-alkenesulfonate market size will reach US$210 million in 2022, a year-on-year growth of 9.6%.

In terms of output, due to factors such as insufficient supply of raw materials, the output of α-alkenyl sulfonates in my country is low. According to the “2023-2028 China α-alkenyl sulfonate (AOS) industry market in-depth research and development prospect forecast report released by the Industrial Research Center ” shows that my country’s α-alkenyl sulfonate production will reach 69,000 tons in 2022, a year-on-year increase of 5.4%. In the future, as the technological maturity of local enterprises improves and the localization process of the raw material market accelerates, my country’s α-alkenesulfonate production capacity will be further expanded and output will increase.

The global α-alkenesulfonate market is mainly concentrated in France, Germany, Japan and the United States. Representative companies include Dow Chemical, Wacker Chemical, Arkema, Lion, etc. my country’s alpha-alkenyl sulfonate market is dominated by small and medium-sized enterprises, including Tianzhi Fine Chemicals, Zhongqing Chemicals, Nanfeng Daily Chemicals, Jintong Fine Chemicals, Zhanzheng Technology, etc.

Industry analysts said that as an emerging product of anionic surfactants, α-alkenyl sulfonates have excellent comprehensive properties and strong market demand. , the industry development trend is good. Compared with overseas developed countries, my country’s α-alkenyl sulfonate industry started late. Due to factors such as high technical barriers and shortage of raw materials, production cannot meet downstream demand. In the future, as the technological level of local enterprises improves, the development speed of my country’s α-alkenyl sulfonate industry is expected to further accelerate.
