Description

n-(2-Aminoethyl)-9-Octadecenamide is a high-purity oleochemical derivative, specifically an unsaturated fatty acid amide with a primary amine functional group. This unique structure provides excellent surface activity and reactivity, making it a valuable intermediate for synthesizing specialized surfactants and functional polymers. It is primarily sought by manufacturers in the personal care, lubricant additive, and specialty chemical industries for its ability to impart conditioning, anti-static, and emulsifying properties.

Application

• Surfactant & Emulsifier Intermediate: A key building block for synthesizing cationic, amphoteric, or nonionic surfactants used in hair conditioners, fabric softeners, and industrial cleaners.
• Lubricant & Fuel Additive Precursor: Used to manufacture friction modifiers, corrosion inhibitors, and dispersants for engine oils, greases, and industrial lubricants.
• Personal Care Formulations: Serves as a conditioning agent and emulsifier in premium hair care products, skin creams, and cosmetic formulations.
• Polymer Modification & Curing Agent: Acts as a reactive monomer or cross-linking agent for epoxy resins and polyamides, enhancing flexibility and adhesion.
• Textile & Leather Auxiliary Chemicals: Employed in the production of softening, anti-static, and water-repellent finishes for fibers and leather.
• Corrosion Inhibitor Synthesis: A precursor for creating film-forming amine-based inhibitors used in water treatment and metalworking fluids.
