Description

Glycine, N-(Carboxymethyl)-N-Dodecyl-, Monosodium Salt is a high-purity amphoteric surfactant derived from glycine, offering excellent compatibility and mildness. This compound is valued for its superior foaming, wetting, and emulsifying properties, even in hard water and across a wide pH range. It is essential for formulators in the personal care, home care, and industrial cleaning sectors seeking high-performance, biodegradable, and skin-friendly ingredients.

Application

• Personal Care Formulations: Used as a primary surfactant in mild shampoos, body washes, facial cleansers, and baby care products due to its gentle nature on skin and eyes.
• Home Care & Industrial Cleaners: Serves as a key foaming and cleaning agent in dishwashing liquids, all-purpose cleaners, and industrial degreasers, offering stability in acidic or alkaline conditions.
• Cosmetic & Toiletry Products: Employed in shaving foams, bath products, and other rinse-off formulations for its rich, stable lather and skin-conditioning benefits.
• Textile & Leather Processing: Acts as a wetting agent, emulsifier, and softener in various processing baths, enhancing dye penetration and material handle.
• Metalworking Fluids: Functions as a corrosion inhibitor and lubricity agent in synthetic and semi-synthetic metalworking fluids.
• Agricultural Adjuvants: Can be utilized in pesticide and herbicide formulations to improve spreading, wetting, and absorption on plant surfaces.
