Description

Fatty Acids, C18-Unsatd., Dimers, Polymers With Tall-Oil Fatty Acids And Tetraethylenepentamine is a high-performance polymeric fatty acid amine derivative, synthesized from unsaturated C18 fatty acid dimers, tall oil fatty acids, and tetraethylenepentamine. This specialized chemical is engineered to provide exceptional performance as a versatile intermediate and functional additive, offering unique rheological and surface-active properties. It is a critical raw material for formulators in the coatings, adhesives, and lubricant industries seeking to enhance product durability, adhesion, and corrosion resistance.

Application

• Corrosion Inhibitors: A key component in formulating high-performance corrosion inhibitors and rust preventatives for metalworking fluids, industrial lubricants, and protective coatings.
• Epoxy Curing Agents & Modifiers: Used as a reactive modifier or curing agent in epoxy resin systems to impart flexibility, improved adhesion, and enhanced chemical resistance.
• Inks & Overprint Varnishes: Functions as a dispersant and adhesion promoter in printing inks and overprint varnishes, improving gloss and substrate wetting.
• Asphalt Modifiers: Employed to modify asphalt binders, improving their rheological properties, temperature susceptibility, and adhesion to aggregates.
• Lubricant Additives: Acts as an extreme pressure (EP) additive and friction modifier in synthetic and semi-synthetic lubricants and greases.
• Adhesive Tackifiers: Serves as a tackifying resin and compatibility enhancer in hot-melt and pressure-sensitive adhesive formulations.
• Fuel & Oil Additives: Utilized as a detergent and dispersant additive in fuel and lubricant packages to control deposits and sludge.
• Polymer Synthesis: Acts as a polymeric building block or cross-linking agent in the synthesis of polyamides, polyimides, and other specialty polymers.

Quality Control

Our production of Fatty Acids, C18-Unsatd., Dimers, Polymers With Tall-Oil Fatty Acids And Tetraethylenepentamine adheres to a stringent quality management system to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and performance reliability. Each lot undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including assessment of amine value, acid value, viscosity, and color. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting these specifications are provided with every shipment. Our quality protocols are designed to meet the demanding requirements of industrial applications and support our customers' own quality assurance and regulatory compliance needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at ambient temperatures (typically 15-25°C). Keep away from strong oxidizing agents and heat sources. Due to its polymeric and reactive amine nature, prolonged exposure to air and moisture should be minimized to prevent changes in viscosity and performance.
