Description

Dimethylbis[2-(Oleoylamino)Ethyl]Ammonium Chloride is a quaternary ammonium compound with a long-chain fatty acid (oleoyl) moiety, making it a versatile cationic surfactant and conditioning agent. This structure provides excellent substantivity to negatively charged surfaces, offering both emulsifying and antistatic properties. It is primarily utilized in the personal care, textile, and specialty chemical industries where surface modification and conditioning are required. The compound is supplied under strict quality control to ensure batch-to-batch consistency for industrial applications.

Application

• Hair Care Formulations: Acts as a highly effective cationic conditioning agent in shampoos, conditioners, and hair masks, providing excellent detangling, softness, and manageability.
• Fabric Softeners & Textile Auxiliaries: Imparts a soft, smooth hand-feel to textiles and provides antistatic properties during fabric finishing processes.
• Industrial Emulsifier: Serves as a cationic emulsifier for oil-in-water (O/W) systems in various specialty chemical and coating applications.
• Personal Care Products: Used in skin creams and lotions as an emollient and skin-conditioning agent, enhancing product spreadability and after-feel.
• Antistatic Agent: Applied in polymer processing and plastic manufacturing to reduce static charge buildup on surfaces.
• Biocide & Preservative Synergist: Can enhance the efficacy of certain preservative systems in aqueous formulations due to its cationic nature.

Quality Control

Our Dimethylbis[2-(Oleoylamino)Ethyl]Ammonium Chloride is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch is tested to ensure it meets defined specifications for identity, purity, and performance. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) documenting key parameters such as assay, amine value, and moisture content is provided with every shipment. We adhere to cGMP principles where applicable to ensure product integrity and traceability.

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). This product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive). Keep the container tightly sealed when not in use to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which may affect product quality and performance.
