Description

Tallow Amine Acetate CAS NO 61790-60-1 is a cationic surfactant derived from natural tallow fatty acids. This compound is valued for its excellent emulsifying, conditioning, and antistatic properties in various industrial formulations. It serves as a key ingredient for manufacturers in the personal care, textile processing, agrochemical, and asphalt industries seeking effective and versatile cationic agents.

Application

• Hair Conditioners & Cream Rinses: Acts as a primary cationic surfactant, providing excellent detangling, softness, and manageability to hair.
• Textile Softeners & Antistatic Agents: Imparts a soft hand feel and reduces static cling on natural and synthetic fibers during finishing processes.
• Asphalt Emulsifiers: Used in the formulation of cationic slow-setting and quick-setting asphalt emulsions for road construction and maintenance.
• Agrochemical Adjuvants: Functions as an emulsifier and dispersant in pesticide and herbicide formulations to enhance spray coverage and adhesion.
• Metalworking Fluids: Provides lubrication and corrosion inhibition in coolants and drawing compounds.
• Mineral Flotation: Serves as a collector or frother in the beneficiation of certain ores.
• Industrial Cleaners: Enhances the cleaning and degreasing performance in acid-based and disinfectant cleaners.
• Leather Processing: Used as a fatliquoring agent to soften and lubricate leather fibers.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). This product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); keep container tightly sealed when not in use to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture which may lead to caking or reduced efficacy. Keep away from strong oxidizing agents.
