In this podcast, we look at the roughly 15% of the market for surfactants that is in personal care and cosmetics. These products are used by consumers every day and the surfactant provides cleaning, emulsification, foaming and other sensorial and functional benefits. It is a good market for new suppliers with new ingredients to get started in.Subscribe and follow 'The Surfactant Insights Podcast':You Tube (https://youtu.be/8mCatnnG1ZE?si=vpIr7dY6yYVo9MsA)Spreaker (https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/surfactant-insights-podcast--6614902)Apple Podcasts (https://podcasts.apple.com/id/podcast/surfactant-insights-podcast/id1814104241) Spotify (https://open.spotify.com/show/1Ib3qlCtUjJjdEpMXq6krE)Amazon Music (https://music.amazon.com/es-ar/podcasts/cb6e99e3-585e-4e90-bad4-17a3da76f3e4/surfactant-insights-podcast) Stay in touch with us: https://www.teknoscienze.com/ https://www.teknoscienze.com/hpc-today/ https://it.linkedin.com/company/teknoscienze-srl

In this podcast, we cover the 25 – 30% of the surfactant market (by weight) that is not directed to cleaning. In this segment, there are many markets including : Food, Construction, Crop Protection, Emulsion Polymerization, Lubricants, Metalworking Fluids, Oil & Gas, Textiles, Paints and Coatings, Pulp and Paper and Other. These markets are generally high margin specialty markets which require a deep applications understanding by the supplier.Subscribe and follow 'The Surfactant Insights Podcast':Spreaker: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/surfactant-insights-podcast--6614902Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/it/podcast/specialty-and-commodity-surfactants-whats-the/id1814104241?i=1000708315037Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1Ib3qlCtUjJjdEpMXq6krEAmazon Music: https://music.amazon.com/es-ar/podcasts/cb6e99e3-585e-4e90-bad4-17a3da76f3e4/surfactant-insights-podcastStay in touch with us:https://www.teknoscienze.com/https://www.teknoscienze.com/hpc-today/https://it.linkedin.com/company/teknoscienze-srlContact the author:https://www.neilaburns.com/

Here we look into an extremely important region for surfactant consumption, production and innovation. Southeast Asia produces around 90% of the world palm and palm kernel oil, critical starting points for much of the world’s surfactants. China has enormous and growing surfactant production capacity, currently far in excess of its demand. Other countries in Asia, particularly Korea and Japan are setting global trends for consumer products, particularly in cosmetics.

This episode looks at what makes a specialty surfactant so special and what makes it different from a commodity surfactant. We consider the different roles for these different types of surfactant and the different challenges in selling and marketing of each type. We also cover the markets where you would expect to see each type of surfactant and the process technologies used to make them.Subscribe and follow 'The Surfactant Insights Podcast':Spreaker: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/surfactant-insights-podcast--6614902Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/it/podcast/specialty-and-commodity-surfactants-whats-the/id1814104241?i=1000708315037Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1Ib3qlCtUjJjdEpMXq6krEAmazon Music: https://music.amazon.com/es-ar/podcasts/cb6e99e3-585e-4e90-bad4-17a3da76f3e4/surfactant-insights-podcastStay in touch with us:https://www.teknoscienze.com/https://www.teknoscienze.com/hpc-today/https://it.linkedin.com/company/teknoscienze-srlContact the author:https://www.neilaburns.com/
