Description

(Z)-n-(2-Hydroxyethyl)-n-[2-[(1-Oxo-9-Octadecenyl)Amino]Ethyl]Glycine is a high-purity, amphoteric surfactant and chelating agent derived from oleic acid and glycine. This compound is valued for its excellent metal ion sequestration properties and mild surfactant characteristics, making it a versatile ingredient in demanding formulations. It is primarily sought by manufacturers in the personal care, industrial cleaning, and metalworking industries for its ability to enhance stability and performance.

Application

• Personal Care Formulations: Used as a gentle co-surfactant and chelating agent in shampoos, body washes, and facial cleansers to improve foam quality and sequester hardness ions.
• Industrial & Institutional (I&I) Cleaners: Acts as a key component in acid-based and alkaline cleaners, providing chelation, surface wetting, and corrosion inhibition.
• Metalworking Fluids: Serves as a stabilizer and chelant in synthetic and semi-synthetic coolants to control water hardness and prevent deposit formation.
• Textile Processing: Employed in scouring, dyeing, and finishing baths to complex metal ions that can interfere with chemical processes and affect color fastness.
• Agricultural Formulations: Enhances the stability and efficacy of pesticide and fertilizer solutions by chelating micronutrients and mitigating antagonistic ion interactions.
• Oilfield Chemicals: Utilized in scale and corrosion inhibitor formulations for production and stimulation fluids.
