“…By the end of 2019, New York State announced new regulations that require decreasing dioxane in surfactant products to levels below 5 ppm (Bettenhausen, 2020), along with a progressive plan to reduce it to “ultra‐low levels” (Table 3). Motivated by its reported toxicity, intensive research on methods for quantification of 1,4‐dioxane in surfactant products have been performed in recent years (EPA, 2017; Fuh et al, 2005; W. Li et al, 2018; Saraji & Shirvani, 2017; Tahara et al, 2013; Tanabe & Kawata, 2008).…”

This work reviews the use of carbohydrates and their derivatives as renewable raw materials in the production of surfactants. Methods to attain state‐of‐the‐art carbohydrate‐derived surfactants are described. This includes surfactants widely used nowadays and others that have not yet transcended beyond the academic field. Given the abundance of hydroxyl groups in carbohydrates and the considerable quantity of different surfactant structures that can be generated during their synthesis, selectively obtaining a target product represents a challenge. Therefore, this work focuses on the platform chemicals available to synthesize biobased surfactants. The first part of the review comprises a brief introduction of simple and complex carbohydrates to better understand their chemistry. Then, a description of the processes to obtain biobased building blocks derived from carbohydrates according to the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL, USA), and their usefulness in synthesizing surfactants is presented. This provides an organized inventory of the knowledge around the synthesis–production of surfactants from carbohydrate derivatives, emphasizing raw materials that could be inserted into the circular bioeconomy concept. Finally, the current industry trends and the potential role of biobased surfactants around new dioxane regulations are discussed.

“…The anionic surfactant have been used in detergents, cationic surfactants in fabric softeners and hair products whereas amphoteric surfactants in skin care products, Out of all types of surfactants, the non-ionic surfactant showed high detergent property because of the presence of high content of ethylene oxide. There are four types of cleansing agents, which include soap, detergents, lotions and antimicrobials [74][75][76][77][78][79]. Presently, much attentiveness has been paid towards the production of low cost and eco-friendly surfactants as their usage is increasing day by day.…”

Surfactants are the important class of amphiphilic species, which consists of both hydrophilic as well as hydrophobic part. They are characterized by some important properties like critical micelle concentration (CMC), charge, hydrophile-lypophile balance (HLB), aggregation, and chemical structure, which make them good emulsifying, dispersing and foaming agents. Presently, the global demand of the surfactants is on the peak due to their increased applications in detergents, paints, food emulsion, biotechnological processes, biosciences, pharmaceuticals, cosmetic products, etc. In order to prevent Corona pandemic disease, WHO and other regulatory authorities have recommended frequent use of soaps and sanitizers that makes surfactants an important class of species to be explored more in terms of their applications.

“…It should be pointed out that synthetic nonionic surfactants with 7-12 mol of ethylene oxide content exhibited excellent detergent property [50]. Polyethoxylated surfactants are widely applied in the formulation of different cleaning agents such as shampoo, dish washing and hand washing products and lotion formulation [51]. The cleansing agents are mainly four types: soap, synthetic detergents, lipid-free lotions and prescription antimicrobials [52].…”

Surfactant is a special kind of amphiphilic compound composed of water-loving and hating parts. The remarkable physical properties like interfacial tension, wettability, emulsifying and dispersing ability make the surfactant accessible for numerous applications from laboratory to commercial products. In recent years, the commercial applications of surfactant have led to greater relevance on account of the environmental concerns and market pressures of this compound. The utility of surfactants in global market increases steadily since its formulation with several beneficial aspects in pharmaceutical, detergent, cosmetic, paint, food science, gas hydrate, nanotechnology, petroleum recovery, bioremediation, chemical transformation and drug delivery. This review briefly discusses the applied aspect of surfactants in diverse area as well as catalytic effect of micelle in organic reactions from the recent literature survey. The trend of increasing use of bioderived surfactants in the modern field of research is also considered in this report. The recent advancement of surfactant-based organic transformations has been emphasized with the role of surfactant aggregates in course of different organic reactions.
