Description

n-Isododecylacrylamide is a high-purity, long-chain alkyl acrylamide derivative, a key specialty monomer for advanced polymer synthesis. Its unique branched dodecyl chain imparts exceptional hydrophobic and oleophilic properties to copolymers, enhancing performance in demanding formulations. This product is essential for R&D and production in sectors requiring tailored surface characteristics, rheology modification, and compatibility with non-polar systems.

Application

• Hydrophobic Modifier for Acrylic Polymers: Imparts water resistance and low surface energy to coatings, inks, and adhesives.
• Viscosity Index Improver (VII): Used as a co-monomer in the synthesis of lubricant and fuel oil additives to improve viscosity-temperature performance.
• Surface-Active Monomer: Key building block for producing amphiphilic polymers and surfactants for emulsion stabilization and wetting agents.
• Oil & Gas Field Chemicals: Component in polymers for enhanced oil recovery (EOR), drilling muds, and fluid loss control additives.
• Personal Care & Cosmetic Polymers: Used in the synthesis of film-forming agents, hair fixatives, and waterproofing agents for sunscreens and makeup.
• Textile & Leather Finishing: Provides durable water and oil repellency (DWR/DOR) finishes for fabrics and treated leather.
• Adhesive & Sealant Formulations: Enhances adhesion to low-energy surfaces and improves flexibility and chemical resistance.
• Specialty Material Research: Serves as a precursor for stimuli-responsive polymers, hydrogels, and advanced composite materials.

Quality Control

Our n-Isododecylacrylamide is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including chromatographic purity analysis and identity confirmation, to ensure consistency and meet high-performance application requirements. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing assay, purity, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame. For long-term storage, consider under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) to maintain optimal purity and prevent potential polymerization.
