Description

n-Linoleoylsarcosine is a high-purity fatty acid derivative of sarcosine, a key intermediate in the synthesis of specialized surfactants and emulsifiers. This compound is valued for its ability to impart excellent surface-active properties, including foaming, wetting, and emulsification, in demanding formulations. It is primarily utilized by manufacturers in the personal care, cosmetic, and industrial cleaning sectors seeking high-performance, bio-based ingredients.

Application

• Personal Care & Cosmetics: Acts as a mild, high-foaming surfactant and emulsifier in shampoos, facial cleansers, and shower gels.
• Industrial & Institutional (I&I) Cleaners: Serves as a key component in high-performance cleaning and degreasing formulations for hard surfaces.
• Metalworking Fluids: Used as a corrosion inhibitor and emulsifier in synthetic and semi-synthetic metalworking fluids.
• Textile Processing: Functions as a wetting agent, lubricant, and emulsifier in fiber processing and dyeing applications.
• Agricultural Adjuvants: Employed as a component in pesticide and herbicide formulations to enhance spreading and adhesion.
• Research & Development: Used as a biochemical intermediate and standard in academic and industrial R&D laboratories.

Quality Control

Our n-Linoleoylsarcosine is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure consistent purity, identity, and performance. We provide comprehensive Certificates of Analysis (COA) with key parameters including assay, acid value, and moisture content to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and should be handled in a dry environment to prevent degradation. For long-term storage, consider using an inert atmosphere to minimize oxidation.
