A detergent containing linear alkyl benzene sulphonate is better than a detergent with branched alkyl benzene sulphonate.
Linear alkyl benzene is sulfonated to produce linear alkylbenzene sulfonate (LAS) which is a biodegradable surfactant. LAS replaced branched dodecylbenzene sulfonates, which were phased out because they biodegrade more slowly.
