Description

cis-11-Eicosenamide is a high-purity, long-chain fatty acid amide derived from eicosenoic acid. This compound serves as a versatile intermediate and functional additive, valued for its lubricating and slip properties in polymer processing. It is primarily utilized by manufacturers in the plastics, coatings, and specialty chemical industries seeking to enhance material performance and processing efficiency.

Application

• As a slip agent and lubricant in polyolefin films (e.g., LDPE, LLDPE) to reduce surface friction and improve handling.
• Functioning as an internal and external process aid in plastic extrusion and injection molding to prevent sticking and reduce energy consumption.
• Used in the formulation of inks, coatings, and adhesives to modify surface properties and enhance application characteristics.
• As a key intermediate in the synthesis of specialty surfactants and corrosion inhibitors for industrial applications.
• Employed as a textile finishing agent to impart softness and improve fiber processing.
• Potential use as a release agent in rubber and composite manufacturing.
