Description

n-Octyl-1-Nonanamine is a high-purity, long-chain primary amine with the CAS registry number 24552-01-0. This compound serves as a versatile intermediate and functional additive, valued for its surfactant properties and ability to act as a corrosion inhibitor or a precursor for quaternary ammonium compounds. It is essential for manufacturers in the chemical synthesis, agrochemical, and specialty surfactant industries seeking reliable performance in demanding formulations.

Application

• Chemical Intermediate: A key building block for synthesizing quaternary ammonium salts (quats), cationic surfactants, and other nitrogen-containing specialty chemicals.
• Surfactant & Emulsifier: Used in the formulation of industrial cleaners, degreasers, and emulsion stabilizers due to its surface-active properties.
• Corrosion Inhibition: Acts as an effective filming amine corrosion inhibitor in oilfield applications, water treatment, and metalworking fluids.
• Agrochemicals: Employed as an intermediate in the production of herbicides, pesticides, and plant growth regulators.
• Pharmaceutical Intermediates: Serves as a precursor in the synthesis of certain active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and drug delivery agents.
• Rubber & Polymer Additive: Functions as a processing aid, vulcanization accelerator component, or antistatic agent in polymer production.
• Fuel & Lubricant Additive: Utilized as a dispersant, detergent, or anti-wear agent in fuel and lubricant formulations.
• Research & Development: A valuable reagent for academic and industrial R&D in organic chemistry and material science.
