Description

n-[1-(Hydroxymethyl)Propyl]Isooctadecan-1-Amide is a high-purity specialty amide derivative, valued for its unique surfactant and emulsifying properties derived from its branched hydrocarbon chain and polar amide-hydroxyl functional groups. This compound is engineered to provide excellent performance as a non-ionic emulsifier, dispersant, and viscosity modifier in demanding formulations. It is primarily utilized by manufacturers in the personal care, coatings, and industrial lubricant sectors seeking advanced additive solutions.

Application

• As a key non-ionic emulsifier and stabilizer in cosmetic and personal care formulations, including creams, lotions, and sunscreens.
• As a dispersing agent and viscosity modifier in water-based and solvent-based coatings, inks, and adhesive systems.
• As a lubricity additive and anti-wear agent in synthetic and semi-synthetic industrial lubricants and metalworking fluids.
• As a compatibilizer and processing aid in polymer and plastic composite manufacturing.
• As a corrosion inhibitor component in functional fluid packages for industrial applications.
• As a raw material for the synthesis of more complex quaternary ammonium compounds and other specialty surfactants.
