Description

Amides, Tall-Oil Fatty, n-[3-(Dimethylamino)Propyl] is a tertiary amine-functionalized fatty amide derived from tall oil, a renewable resource. This specialty chemical serves as a highly effective cationic surfactant and corrosion inhibitor, offering excellent emulsifying and antistatic properties. It is primarily utilized in industrial formulations where surface activity, lubricity, and metal protection are critical, such as in metalworking fluids, asphalt emulsifiers, and oilfield chemicals.

Application

• Metalworking Fluids: Acts as a key emulsifier and corrosion inhibitor in soluble oils and semi-synthetic coolants, providing excellent surface wetting and rust protection for ferrous metals.
• Asphalt Emulsifiers: Serves as a cationic emulsifying agent for producing stable cationic bitumen emulsions used in road construction and maintenance.
• Oilfield Chemicals: Used in drilling muds and completion fluids as a lubricity enhancer, shale inhibitor, and corrosion preventer.
• Industrial Cleaners & Degreasers: Functions as a surfactant in heavy-duty alkaline and solvent-based cleaning formulations for metal parts and equipment.
• Textile Processing: Employed as a softener, antistatic agent, and dyeing assistant for synthetic fibers.
• Coatings & Inks: Acts as a pigment dispersant and grinding aid, improving color development and stability in various coating systems.
• Agricultural Adjuvants: Used as an emulsifier and spreader in pesticide and herbicide formulations to enhance foliar adhesion and efficacy.
