Description

(Z)-n-(Carboxymethyl)-n-(1-Oxo-9-Octadecenyl)Glycine is a high-purity, amphoteric surfactant and chelating agent derived from oleic acid. This compound is valued for its excellent metal ion sequestration, surface activity, and compatibility across a wide pH range, making it a versatile functional additive. It is primarily sought by manufacturers in the personal care, industrial cleaning, textile processing, and metalworking fluid industries for its multifunctional performance.

Application

• Personal Care Formulations: Acts as a mild surfactant, emulsifier, and chelating agent in shampoos, body washes, and facial cleansers.
• Industrial & Institutional (I&I) Cleaners: Enhances the cleaning efficacy and hard water tolerance of alkaline and acidic detergent formulations.
• Textile Auxiliaries: Used in scouring, dyeing, and finishing processes to complex metal ions and improve process uniformity.
• Metalworking Fluids: Functions as a corrosion inhibitor and stabilizer in coolants and lubricants by chelating problematic metal ions.
• Agricultural Chemicals: Can be employed as a compatibilizer or stabilizer in certain pesticide and fertilizer formulations.
• Oilfield Chemicals: Potential application as a scale inhibitor or surfactant in enhanced oil recovery processes.
