Description

n-(3-Morpholinopropyl)Myristamide n-Oxide CAS NO 66161-56-6 is a high-purity specialty surfactant belonging to the class of amidoamine oxides. This compound is valued for its excellent foaming, thickening, and conditioning properties, offering superior mildness and stability across a wide pH range. It is primarily utilized by formulators in the personal care, home care, and industrial cleaning sectors seeking high-performance, skin-friendly ingredients for rinse-off and leave-on products.

Application

• Personal Care Formulations: Acts as a primary or secondary surfactant and foam booster in shampoos, body washes, facial cleansers, and shaving creams, providing a rich, stable lather with low irritation potential.
• Conditioning Agent: Imparts excellent conditioning and detangling properties to hair care products, improving manageability and feel.
• Home & Institutional Cleaning: Used in liquid dish soaps, hard surface cleaners, and all-purpose cleaners for its effective grease-cutting, foaming, and viscosity-building characteristics.
• Industrial & Textile Processing: Serves as an emulsifier, wetting agent, and antistatic agent in various industrial formulations and textile auxiliaries.
• Cosmetic Emulsions: Functions as a stabilizer and mild co-surfactant in creams, lotions, and other emulsion-based products.

Quality Control

Our n-(3-Morpholinopropyl)Myristamide n-Oxide is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including assay, identification, and impurity profiling, to ensure it meets stringent specifications for purity and performance. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting these results are provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and batch-to-batch consistency.

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 material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); keep the original container tightly sealed to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which may affect product quality.
