Description

Amides, From C18-Unsatd. Fatty Acids Dimers And Diethanolamine is a high-performance, non-ionic surfactant and emulsifier derived from the reaction of dimerized unsaturated C18 fatty acids with diethanolamine. This chemistry provides a unique combination of excellent emulsifying properties, lubricity, and corrosion inhibition, making it a versatile intermediate for demanding industrial formulations. It is particularly valuable for manufacturers in the lubricants, metalworking fluids, coatings, and personal care industries seeking to enhance product stability and performance.

Application

• Metalworking Fluids: Acts as a primary emulsifier and corrosion inhibitor in soluble oils, semi-synthetic, and synthetic coolants.
• Industrial Lubricants & Greases: Functions as an emulsifier, anti-wear agent, and tackifier, improving lubricity and stability.
• Coatings & Inks: Serves as a pigment wetting and grinding aid, enhancing color development and dispersion stability.
• Personal Care & Cosmetics: Used as a thickener, opacifier, and emulsifier in creams, lotions, and hair care products.
• Textile Processing: Employed as a softener, lubricant, and anti-static agent for fibers and yarns.
• Agricultural Adjuvants: Enhances the spreading and sticking properties of pesticides and herbicides.
• PU Foam Stabilization: Acts as a cell opener and surfactant in flexible polyurethane foam production.
• Industrial Cleaners: Provides emulsification and soil suspension in heavy-duty degreasers and cleaning formulations.
