Applications
Whiles I'm not familiar with the 2nd reaction listed, it is not correct and there is a missing chloride ion somewhere. Anyone with more info about this and the correct reaction?

Also used in the manufacture of soaps and shampoo
CSA is also used in the manufacture of shampoo. I know this because they use it where I work to do just that. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.28.132.78 (talk) 01:04, 10 April 2016 (UTC)
 * The article mentions its use in making detergents.--Smokefoot (talk) 02:32, 10 April 2016 (UTC)

Is it a super acid?
Should the article say something about how powerful an acid it it is? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Tn7MVTP8AY seems not to be fake. At the beginning it says that chlorosulphonic acid is a super acid. It certainly looks like an extremely powerful and dangerous acid in the video. It can eat through a plastic coke bottle.

 * Sensationalist and sort of a garbage video. Chlorosulfuric acid probably does quality as a Super acid, but so what?  Chemists are puzzled that so many nonchemists are interested in strong acids. --Smokefoot (talk) 20:41, 20 August 2023 (UTC)
 * So the video was probably right, in your opinion, that it is a super acid. Isn't that an important bit of information about the acid? Would you care to explain why the video is in your view "sensationalist and sort of a garbage video"? I thought it was educational. Polar Apposite (talk) 21:12, 20 August 2023 (UTC)
