Overview
Alfodet P46 is Godrej's paste-form alpha olefin sulphonate with about 90% active matter, far more concentrated than the liquid Alfodet XL46 and Alfodet XL S (about 39%). The high active content means less water to transport and store, and more room in the formula for other ingredients, which suits concentrated detergents and high-performance cleaners. Suraj Chemicals supplies genuine Godrej Alfodet P46 from Chennai.
