Description

(Z)-N,N,N'-Trimethyl-N'-9-Octadecenylpropane-1,3-Diamine is a high-purity, unsaturated quaternary ammonium salt precursor with a long aliphatic chain. This compound is valued for its dual functionality as a cationic surfactant and a versatile chemical intermediate, offering excellent emulsifying and conditioning properties. It is essential for manufacturers in the personal care, textile, and industrial surfactant sectors seeking to enhance product performance and stability.

Application

• Hair Conditioner & Cosmetic Formulations: Acts as a primary cationic surfactant, providing superior detangling, softness, and manageability in rinse-off and leave-in products.
• Fabric Softeners & Textile Auxiliaries: Imparts a soft, smooth hand-feel to fabrics and acts as an antistatic agent during textile processing.
• Industrial Emulsifier & Dispersant: Used in the formulation of oil-in-water emulsions for lubricants, coatings, and agrochemicals.
• Asphalt & Bitumen Modifier: Enhances adhesion and coating properties in road construction and roofing materials.
• Corrosion Inhibitor Intermediate: Serves as a key building block for formulating quaternary ammonium-based corrosion inhibitors for industrial water systems.
• Antimicrobial Agent Precursor: Used in the synthesis of biocidal quats for disinfectants and sanitizers.
• Paper & Pulp Chemical: Functions as a retention aid and softening agent in paper manufacturing.
• Mineral Processing: Employed as a flotation agent and collector in the beneficiation of certain ores.
