OECD SIDS <strong>LINEAR</strong> <strong>ALKYLBENZENE</strong> <strong>SULFONATE</strong> (<strong>LAS</strong>)<br />

C11 low 2-phenyl, low dialkyltetralinsulfonate 0.120<br />

C12 low 2-phenyl, low dialkyltetralinsulfonate 0.105<br />

C13 low 2-phenyl, low dialkyltetralinsulfonate 0.038<br />

linear alkylbenzenesulfonate (Na<strong>LAS</strong>). JAOCS 74:837-845.<br />

Reliability: 2 Valid with restrictions<br />

(b)<br />

Value: >250 g/L<br />

Description: Miscible in water<br />

GLP: Yes [ ] No [ ] ? [?]<br />

Test Substance: Various <strong>LAS</strong>s made from four commercial LABs, average alkyl chain length<br />

= 11.6<br />

Remarks: The study shows that 25% solutions (250 g/L) of various <strong>LAS</strong>s have cloud<br />

clear points (i.e., form clear solutions at rising temperatures) at temperatures<br />

of 2-21 o C, depending on <strong>LAS</strong> composition. Cloud and clear points decrease<br />

dramatically with increasing 2-phenyl isomer composition. The results<br />

demonstrate that 25% solutions of <strong>LAS</strong> are soluble at room temperature.<br />

Reliability: 2 Valid with restrictions<br />

Value: ca. 250 g/L<br />

Temperature: 20 o C<br />

Description: Miscible in water<br />

GLP: Yes [ ] No [X] ? [ ]<br />

Test Substance: Marlon A 390 (CAS #68411-30-3) C10-13 <strong>LAS</strong>, average alkyl chain length =<br />

11.6<br />

Remarks: Miscible with water at 20 o C. Depending on the concentration, clear solutions<br />

(up to ~25% w/w) or inhomogeneous, viscous pastes were obtained. Sources<br />

cited are two reports by Huels AG dated 1988 and 1993.<br />
