Description

Linoleamide DEA is a non-ionic surfactant and foam booster derived from linoleic acid. This versatile compound is valued for its ability to enhance foam stability, viscosity, and skin feel in aqueous formulations. It is primarily utilized by manufacturers in the personal care, cosmetic, and industrial cleaning sectors seeking effective, mild, and multifunctional ingredients.

Application

• Personal Care & Cosmetics: A key ingredient in shampoos, body washes, bubble baths, and liquid soaps, where it acts as a foam booster and stabilizer, providing a rich, creamy lather.
• Hair Care Formulations: Used in conditioners and hair masks for its emulsifying properties and ability to impart a smooth, silky feel to hair.
• Skin Care Products: Functions as an emulsifier and thickener in lotions, creams, and shaving gels, improving texture and stability.
• Household & Industrial Cleaners: Employed in dishwashing liquids, all-purpose cleaners, and car wash solutions to enhance foaming and cleaning efficacy.
• Textile & Leather Processing: Serves as a softener, lubricant, and emulsifying agent in various processing aids.
