Description

Peg-12 Palmitamine CAS NO 68155-33-9 is a nonionic surfactant belonging to the class of ethoxylated fatty amines. This compound is valued for its excellent emulsifying, conditioning, and antistatic properties, making it a versatile functional ingredient. It is primarily used in the formulation of personal care products, industrial cleaners, and textile processing aids where surface activity and compatibility are critical.

Application

• Personal Care & Cosmetics: Acts as a conditioning agent and emulsifier in hair conditioners, shampoos, and skin creams, providing softness and manageability.
• Textile Industry: Used as a softener, lubricant, and antistatic agent in fiber processing and fabric finishing to improve handle and reduce static charge.
• Industrial & Institutional Cleaning: Serves as an emulsifier and surfactant in hard surface cleaners, degreasers, and detergent formulations for enhanced soil removal.
• Agricultural Adjuvants: Functions as a wetting agent, spreader, or emulsifier in pesticide and herbicide formulations to improve coverage and efficacy.
• Metalworking Fluids: Employed as a corrosion inhibitor and emulsifier in coolants and cutting fluids to protect metal surfaces and stabilize emulsions.
• Paints & Coatings: Acts as a pigment dispersant and grinding aid to improve color development and stability in various coating systems.

Quality Control

Our Peg-12 Palmitamine is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure consistent composition, purity, and performance. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting key parameters such as amine value, water content, and ethylene oxide distribution are available upon request.

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 the container tightly sealed to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture which may affect product quality.
