Description

n-Methyl-n-(1-Oxododecyl)Glycine, Compound With 2,2',2''-Nitrilotri(Ethanol) (1:1) is a specialized amphoteric surfactant and complexing agent, valued for its unique dual functionality. This compound is engineered to deliver superior surface activity and metal ion sequestration, making it a critical component in formulations requiring high-performance chelation and mildness. It is primarily needed by manufacturers in the personal care, industrial cleaning, and textile processing industries for creating advanced, multi-functional products.

Application

• Personal Care Formulations: Acts as a mild surfactant and foam booster in shampoos, body washes, and facial cleansers, compatible with sensitive skin.
• Industrial & Institutional Cleaners: Serves as a key chelating agent and surfactant in hard surface cleaners, degreasers, and detergent formulations to control water hardness.
• Textile Auxiliaries: Used in scouring, dyeing, and finishing processes to sequester metal ions that can interfere with dye uptake and fabric quality.
• Metal Treatment & Plating: Functions as a complexing agent in pretreatment baths and plating solutions to stabilize process chemistry.
• Agricultural Adjuvants: Incorporated into pesticide and herbicide formulations to enhance stability and efficacy through chelation and emulsification.
• Oilfield Chemicals: Employed in drilling muds and production chemicals as a corrosion inhibitor and scale control additive.
