Description

n-(3-Hydroxypropyl)Nonanamide is a specialty fatty acid amide derivative, valued for its unique combination of a hydrophobic alkyl chain and a hydrophilic hydroxyl group. This amphiphilic structure makes it a versatile intermediate and functional additive in advanced chemical synthesis. It is particularly sought after by manufacturers in the personal care, pharmaceutical, and specialty polymer industries for its surfactant and conditioning properties.

Application

• As a key intermediate in the synthesis of high-performance surfactants and emulsifiers.
• Used in the formulation of personal care products, such as hair conditioners and skin creams, for its conditioning and moisturizing effects.
• Acts as a building block for specialty polymers, including polyamides and polyurethanes, modifying flexibility and hydrophilicity.
• Employed in pharmaceutical research as a potential prodrug component or a solubilizing agent.
• Functions as a corrosion inhibitor or lubricity additive in advanced industrial fluid formulations.
• Serves as a research chemical in academic and industrial laboratories studying lipid membrane interactions and amphiphilic compounds.

Quality Control

Our n-(3-Hydroxypropyl)Nonanamide is produced under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including chromatographic purity analysis and identity confirmation, to ensure it meets the high standards required for industrial and research applications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, assay, and impurity profiles are provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent moisture absorption, which can affect product quality and stability.
