Description

(2-Hydroxy-1,1-Dimethylethyl)Ammonium Myristate is an ammonium salt derived from myristic acid and 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol. This compound is valued for its surfactant and emulsifying properties, making it a versatile ingredient in formulations requiring effective surface activity and stability. It is primarily utilized by manufacturers in the personal care, cosmetics, and industrial cleaning sectors seeking high-performance, mild amphoteric components.

Application

• Personal Care & Cosmetics: Acts as a primary or co-emulsifier, surfactant, and viscosity modifier in creams, lotions, and hair conditioners.
• Industrial & Institutional Cleaners: Serves as a key surfactant in formulations for hard surface cleaners, degreasers, and specialty detergents.
• Textile & Leather Processing: Used as a softener, lubricant, and antistatic agent in fiber treatment and finishing baths.
• Metalworking Fluids: Functions as a corrosion inhibitor and emulsifier in soluble oils and synthetic coolants.
• Agricultural Adjuvants: Employed as a wetting agent, dispersant, or emulsifier in pesticide and herbicide formulations.
• Paints & Coatings: Aids in pigment wetting, dispersion, and stabilization in water-based coating systems.
