Anionic vs. Non-ionic Depending on charge and polarity, a difference is made between anionic, cationic, non-ionic and other surfactants. The current most significant type are anionic surfactants: Other countries, other surfactants With a world market share of more than 36%, the Asia-Pacific region has the highest demand for surfactants. The product types reveal significant regional differences: The Study in Brief: Chapter 1 provides a presentation and analysis of the global market for surfactants with forecasts up to 2022: revenues development as well as production and demand volumes are analyzed.

In Chapter 4, demand for individual types of surfactants is analyzed. In particular anionic, cationic, non-ionic and other surfactants are considered. Also, a further subdivision of the group anionic surfactants into alkyl benzene sulfonates (LAS), alkylsulfates, alkyl ether sulfates/ alcohol ethoxy sulfates (FAS/ FAES/ AES) and other anionic surfactants is made. The segment non-ionic surfactants is split by fatty alcohol ethoxylates (FAEO), other ethoxylates and other non-ionic surfactants (for example pure fatty alcohols, alkyl polyglycosides) Chapter 5 provides profiles of the largest producers of surfactants, clearly arranged according to contact details, turnover, profit, product range, production sites, and profile summary. In-depth profiles of 80 producers are given, including Ecover Belgium N.V., Solvay SA, ALTANA AG, Bayer AG, Lanxess AG, PCC SE, ERCA SPA, Campi y Jové S.A., General Electric Company (GE), Saraya Co. Ltd., and KLK OLEO.
