Cocamine

Cocamine (CAS 61788-46-3 ), also known as coconut amines, is a primary amine derived from coconut oil fatty acids spanning a mixed C8–C18 carbon chain distribution. It functions as an emulsifier and dispersant. This chemical acts as a surface-active agent across a broad range of industrial formulations. In personal care, it is used as an intermediate to produce quaternary ammonium compounds and amine oxides found in conditioning shampoos. Home care and industrial cleaning formulations incorporate it as a precursor for cationic surfactants. These surfactants improve soil release and substrate wetting, making them essential for high-performance cleaning products. Textile processing relies on derived compounds for fiber lubrication and antistatic finishing. It is also utilized for dye fixation on cellulosic and synthetic fabrics to ensure color stability and material longevity. In paper and leather manufacturing, it supports surface modification treatments that influence water repellency. These treatments are critical for controlling coating adhesion and the final texture of the processed materials. The product is supplied as a liquid or low-melting solid, depending on carbon chain composition and temperature. Technical grade is the standard commercial form, with purity typically expressed by amine value. Color is measured on the Gardner scale to ensure consistency across batches. Buyers should confirm chain length distribution and primary amine content when evaluating lots for downstream synthesis or formulation use. Contact us for supply of Cocamine Request Quote
