Description

n-Butyloleamide is a high-purity fatty acid amide derivative, specifically the butyl amide of oleic acid. This compound serves as a versatile intermediate and functional additive, valued for its lubricating and slip properties. It is primarily utilized in the polymer, plastics, and coatings industries, where it enhances surface finish and processing efficiency. Our supply of n-Butyloleamide CAS NO 18961-61-0 ensures consistent quality for demanding industrial applications.

Application

• Acts as an effective internal and external lubricant and slip agent in polyolefin films (e.g., LDPE, LLDPE) and PVC processing.
• Functions as a key intermediate in the synthesis of specialty surfactants and corrosion inhibitors.
• Used as a mold release agent in the manufacturing of rubber and plastic components.
• Imparts anti-blocking and anti-static properties to plastic films and sheets.
• Serves as a viscosity modifier and flow aid in inks, coatings, and adhesive formulations.
• Employed as a surface conditioner in synthetic fibers and textiles.
