Description

Bis[Bis(2-Hydroxyethyl)Ammonium] Heptanedioate is a specialized organic salt with unique surfactant and chelating properties derived from its diethanolamine and heptanedioic acid structure. This compound is valued for its ability to act as a multifunctional additive, offering excellent solubility in aqueous systems and compatibility with various formulations. It is primarily sought by manufacturers in the personal care, textile processing, and industrial cleaning sectors for its emulsifying, pH-buffering, and metal-sequestering capabilities.

Application

• Personal Care & Cosmetics: Used as a gentle surfactant, emulsifier, and pH adjuster in shampoos, liquid soaps, and skin care formulations.
• Textile Auxiliaries: Functions as a leveling agent, dye assistant, and softener base in fabric dyeing and finishing processes.
• Industrial & Institutional (I&I) Cleaning: Serves as a key component in hard surface cleaners and degreasers for its surfactant and chelating action.
• Metalworking Fluids: Acts as a corrosion inhibitor and emulsifier in synthetic and semi-synthetic metalworking coolants.
• Chemical Synthesis: Employed as a phase-transfer catalyst or an intermediate in organic synthesis.
• Agricultural Adjuvants: Used in pesticide and herbicide formulations to enhance spreading and adherence on plant surfaces.
