Basic knowledge of anionic, cationic, nonionic and amphoteric surfactants

Surfactants play an indispensable role in industry and daily life. Anionic surfactants are widely used in detergents, and their strong decontamination ability makes them occupy an important position in washing products.

Cationic surfactants are widely used in personal care products such as conditioners and disinfectants due to their excellent antibacterial properties. In addition, nonionic surfactants are favored in emulsifiers and cleaning products due to their mildness and excellent compatibility.

Finally, the unique structure of amphoteric surfactants enables them to have excellent adaptability in acidic and alkaline environments.

Market demand and development trend

As consumers pay more attention to green environmental protection, the market demand for these surfactants has also increased. According to statistics, the global surfactant market is expected to reach US$200 billion by 2025.
