Fatty Methyl Ester Sulfonate (FMES or MES) from palm and coconut derivatives have been in the limelight with the increase in the crude oil prices and the resultant increase in the prices of the petrochemicals. MES offers an environmentally friendly and viable alternative to the currently used workhorse surfactant alkyl benzene derived from linear alkyl benzene (LAB). Methyl Ester Sulfonate (MES) from palm and coconut derivatives offer an environmentally friendly and viable alternative to the old workhorse surfactant alkyl benzene, which is derived from linear alkyl benzene (LAB). Chemithon Corporation has patented technologies for manufacturing MES which produces commercial quantities of MES in a free flowing powder form. These products are being formulated into both liquid and powder finished detergents.
