Description

Sodium n-Methyl-n-(1-Oxo-9-Octadecenyl)Aminoacetate is a high-purity anionic surfactant and specialty chemical intermediate. This compound is valued for its excellent emulsifying, dispersing, and surface-active properties, making it a critical component in advanced formulations. It is primarily utilized by manufacturers in the personal care, industrial cleaning, and textile processing industries seeking high-performance, water-soluble ingredients.

Application

• Personal Care & Cosmetics: Acts as a primary emulsifier and surfactant in high-end shampoos, body washes, facial cleansers, and shaving creams, providing rich lather and mildness.
• Industrial & Institutional (I&I) Cleaners: Serves as a key ingredient in heavy-duty degreasers, metal cleaners, and hard surface cleaners due to its superior oil emulsification and wetting capabilities.
• Textile Processing: Used as a scouring agent, dye leveling agent, and softener base in fabric treatment processes to ensure uniform dye uptake and improved hand feel.
• Agricultural Adjuvants: Functions as a surfactant in pesticide and herbicide formulations to enhance spray droplet spread, adhesion, and active ingredient penetration on plant surfaces.
• Oilfield Chemicals: Employed in drilling muds and production chemicals as an emulsifier and corrosion inhibitor to improve fluid performance and protect equipment.
• Leather Processing: Utilized in fatliquoring and dyeing stages to improve the softness, uniformity, and quality of finished leather goods.
