Oleum Sulfonated High Molecular Weight Sulfonic Acid Sulfon™ 97 is a highly active, light colored sulfonic acid produced from oleum sulfonation of a proprietary alkylate that is essentially LAB-free. Sulfon™ 97 is recommended as an intermediate for the manufacture of oil soluble metallic sulfonates where exceptional water displacement is critical. The sulfonates produced from Sulfon™ 97 exhibit low odor and excellent rust and corrosion inhibiting characteristics. They are generally compatible with a variety of basestocks and impart superior detergent and dispersant properties.

Applications

Sulfon™ 97 is used to manufacture metallic sulfonates with high molecular weights. Such products will exhibit excellent corrosion inhibiting characteristics along with strong hydrophobic characteristics; therefore, it is an excellent choice for making rust preventive compounds. When neutralized with amine, ashless sulfonates can also be produced.
