Description

3-Myristyloxy Propylamine is a high-purity, long-chain alkyloxy amine derivative, also known by its CAS number 7617-82-5. This specialty chemical serves as a versatile intermediate and functional additive, valued for its unique combination of a hydrophilic amine group and a lipophilic myristyl chain. It is primarily utilized by manufacturers in the personal care, agrochemical, and pharmaceutical industries for applications requiring emulsification, surface modification, or as a building block for quaternary ammonium compounds.

Application

• Personal Care & Cosmetics: Acts as a cationic emulsifier, hair conditioning agent, and skin feel enhancer in creams, lotions, and hair care formulations.
• Agrochemicals: Used as an intermediate in the synthesis of cationic surfactants and adjuvants for pesticide and herbicide formulations to improve adhesion and penetration.
• Pharmaceutical Intermediates: Serves as a key building block for synthesizing bioactive molecules and pharmaceutical salts requiring specific amphiphilic properties.
• Textile & Leather Processing: Functions as a softener, antistatic agent, and dyeing auxiliary to improve fabric handle and processing performance.
• Oilfield Chemicals: Employed as a corrosion inhibitor intermediate and a component in drilling mud additives for its surfactant properties.
• Industrial Surfactants: A precursor for manufacturing quaternary ammonium compounds (quats) used as biocides, phase transfer catalysts, and emulsifiers.
