Description

2,2'-[[3-[2-(Dodecyloxy)Ethoxy]Propyl]Imino]Bisethanol is a specialized non-ionic surfactant and tertiary amine derivative, valued for its unique combination of a long hydrophobic chain and a hydrophilic, ethanolamine-based head group. This structure provides excellent emulsifying, dispersing, and conditioning properties, making it a critical performance additive in advanced formulations. It is primarily sought by manufacturers in the personal care, agrochemical, and industrial cleaning sectors for its ability to enhance product stability and efficacy.

Application

• Personal Care & Cosmetics: Acts as a conditioning agent, emulsifier, and viscosity modifier in hair conditioners, skin creams, and lotions.
• Agrochemical Formulations: Used as an adjuvant, emulsifier, and dispersant in pesticides, herbicides, and fungicides to improve foliar adhesion and spreading.
• Industrial & Institutional (I&I) Cleaners: Serves as a surfactant and degreaser in heavy-duty cleaning products, metalworking fluids, and textile processing aids.
• Coatings & Inks: Functions as a pigment dispersant and grinding aid to improve color development and stability in water-based systems.
• Oilfield Chemicals: Employed as a corrosion inhibitor intermediate or emulsifier in drilling and production chemicals.
• Textile Auxiliaries: Used as a softener, lubricant, and antistatic agent in fiber and fabric treatment processes.

Quality Control

Our 2,2'-[[3-[2-(Dodecyloxy)Ethoxy]Propyl]Imino]Bisethanol is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including assay by titration, identification by IR spectroscopy, and control of key impurities, to ensure it meets precise specifications for industrial and specialty chemical applications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting purity, physical properties, and conformance are available upon request to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). This product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); ensure containers are sealed immediately after use to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can affect product quality.
