Description

n-(2-Hydroxyethyl)-n-[2-[(1-Oxooctadecyl)Amino]Ethyl]Glycine is a high-purity amphoteric surfactant and chelating agent derived from glycine. This compound is valued for its excellent compatibility with other surfactants, low irritation profile, and effective metal ion sequestration properties. It is primarily utilized in the formulation of high-performance personal care products, industrial cleaning agents, and specialized chemical synthesis where mildness and stability are critical.

Application

• Personal Care Formulations: Acts as a primary or co-surfactant in mild shampoos, body washes, facial cleansers, and baby care products due to its low irritation potential.
• Industrial & Institutional Cleaners: Used in acid-based cleaners, metal surface treatments, and hard surface disinfectants for its stability and chelating power.
• Textile & Leather Processing: Serves as a leveling agent, softener, and dyeing auxiliary to improve process uniformity and product quality.
• Metalworking Fluids: Functions as a corrosion inhibitor and stabilizer in cutting oils and coolants by chelating metal ions.
• Agricultural Adjuvants: Incorporated into pesticide and herbicide formulations to enhance spreading, wetting, and system stability.
• Pharmaceutical Intermediates: Employed in the synthesis of specialized pharmaceutical compounds requiring a bifunctional glycine derivative.
