Description

Amides, Coco, n-[2-[Bis(2-Hydroxyethyl)Amino]-2-Oxoethyl]-n-Methyl is a high-purity, non-ionic surfactant belonging to the class of alkanolamides, derived from coconut oil fatty acids. This specialty chemical is valued for its excellent foam boosting, thickening, and emulsifying properties, making it a critical performance additive in demanding formulations. It is primarily utilized by manufacturers in the personal care, home care, and industrial cleaning sectors seeking to enhance product efficacy and stability.

Application

• Personal Care Formulations: Acts as a foam stabilizer and viscosity builder in shampoos, body washes, liquid soaps, and shaving creams.
• Household & Industrial Cleaners: Used in dishwashing liquids, hard surface cleaners, and degreasers for its superior detergency and foam characteristics.
• Textile & Leather Processing: Serves as an emulsifier, softener, and antistatic agent in fiber treatments and finishing baths.
• Metalworking Fluids: Functions as a corrosion inhibitor and lubricity enhancer in synthetic and semi-synthetic coolants.
• Agricultural Adjuvants: Employed as a surfactant to improve the spreading and adhesion of pesticides and herbicides.
• Paint & Coating Additives: Aids in pigment dispersion and stabilizes emulsion systems in water-based coatings.
