Description

N,n-Bis(2-Hydroxyethyl)Dodecanamide Monoacetate is a specialized non-ionic surfactant and emulsifying agent derived from lauric acid. This compound matters for formulators seeking a versatile, mild ingredient with excellent emulsification, foam boosting, and conditioning properties. It is primarily needed by manufacturers in the personal care, cosmetics, and industrial cleaning sectors for creating stable, high-performance formulations.

Application

• Personal Care & Cosmetics: Acts as a primary or co-emulsifier in creams, lotions, and hair conditioners, providing a smooth, non-greasy feel.
• Hair Care Formulations: Used in shampoos and conditioners for its excellent detangling, conditioning, and foam-stabilizing characteristics.
• Skin Care Products: Employed in moisturizing creams and sunscreens for its emulsifying power and skin compatibility.
• Industrial & Household Cleaners: Serves as a surfactant and viscosity modifier in liquid soaps, detergents, and hard-surface cleaners.
• Textile & Leather Processing: Functions as a softener, lubricant, and antistatic agent in fiber treatments and finishing baths.
• Agricultural Adjuvants: Can be utilized as a wetting agent, emulsifier, or penetrant in pesticide and herbicide formulations.
