Description

n-[3-(Decylamino)Propyl]-D-Gluconamide is a specialty surfactant and complexing agent derived from D-gluconic acid and a decyl amine chain. This compound matters for its unique combination of non-ionic surfactant properties and excellent metal-chelating capabilities, making it highly effective in demanding formulations. Industries that need this product include personal care, industrial cleaning, and metal treatment, where it provides mildness, stability, and sequestration in a single molecule.

Application

• As a primary surfactant or co-surfactant in mild personal care products like shampoos, body washes, and facial cleansers.
• As a chelating agent and stabilizer in industrial and institutional cleaning formulations to control water hardness.
• In metalworking fluids and corrosion inhibitors for its ability to complex metal ions and enhance fluid stability.
• As a dispersing and wetting agent in agrochemical formulations and pigment dispersions.
• In pharmaceutical and cosmetic emulsions for its emulsifying properties and skin compatibility.
• For enhancing the solubility and bioavailability of active ingredients in various delivery systems.

Quality Control

Our n-[3-(Decylamino)Propyl]-D-Gluconamide is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure identity, purity, and performance consistency. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment, detailing specifications for assay, impurities, and physical parameters. We adhere to cGMP principles where applicable to support use in regulated industries.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after each use to minimize exposure to atmospheric moisture, which can affect product quality and flow properties.
