Description

n-(3-Aminopropyl)-n-Octyl-D-Gluconamide is a specialized, non-ionic surfactant and complexing agent derived from D-gluconic acid. This compound is valued for its unique combination of a hydrophilic gluconamide head group and a lipophilic octyl chain, which provides excellent surface activity and metal-chelating properties. It is primarily utilized in the formulation of high-performance cleaning agents, personal care products, and as a stabilizer in various chemical processes where mild yet effective action is required.

Application

• As a key surfactant and chelating agent in industrial and institutional cleaning formulations, particularly for hard surface cleaners and metal cleaning solutions.
• In the personal care and cosmetics industry for formulating mild shampoos, body washes, and skin cleansers due to its gentle nature.
• As a stabilizing and complexing agent in agricultural chemical formulations to enhance the efficacy and shelf-life of certain products.
• In textile processing as a wetting agent and detergent auxiliary for fiber treatment and dyeing processes.
• For research and development purposes in biochemistry and material science, exploring its use in membrane studies or as a ligand.
• Potential use in pharmaceutical formulations as an excipient or delivery agent, subject to appropriate regulatory compliance.

Quality Control

Our n-(3-Aminopropyl)-n-Octyl-D-Gluconamide is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including identity confirmation, purity assay, and impurity profiling, to ensure it meets precise specifications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting these results are provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and batch-to-batch consistency for our global B2B clients.

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). This product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can affect product quality.
