Description

n-Propyl-9-Octadecenamide is a high-purity fatty acid amide derivative, specifically the n-propyl amide of oleic acid. This compound serves as a versatile intermediate and functional additive, valued for its unique combination of lipophilic character and amide functionality. It is primarily utilized in the formulation of advanced lubricants, polymer processing aids, and specialty surfactants across the chemical manufacturing and materials science industries.

Application

• Lubricant & Grease Additive: Acts as a friction modifier and anti-wear agent in synthetic and semi-synthetic lubricating oils and greases.
• Polymer Processing Aid: Functions as an internal and external lubricant/slip agent in the processing of plastics (e.g., PVC, polyolefins) to improve flow and mold release.
• Surfactant & Emulsifier Intermediate: Used in the synthesis of non-ionic surfactants for industrial and institutional cleaning formulations.
• Corrosion Inhibitor Component: Incorporated into protective coatings and metalworking fluids to form a protective film on metal surfaces.
• Textile & Fiber Auxiliary: Employed as a softening agent and spin finish component in synthetic fiber production.
• Cosmetic & Personal Care Ingredient: Serves as an emollient and viscosity modifier in skincare and haircare products.
