Amides, C12-18 and C18-unsaturated, N-(hydroxyethyl)

Amides, C12-18 and C18-unsaturated, N-(hydroxyethyl) (CAS 90622-77-8 ) is a fatty acid alkanolamide derived from mixed C12–C18 chain lengths, including unsaturated C18 fractions. It functions as a non-ionic surfactant active in emulsification and foam modification. The compound is highly effective for viscosity building across various formulated products. In personal care, it acts as a foam booster and co-emulsifier in shampoos, body washes, and conditioning formulations. These applications help in improving lather texture and overall product stability. Home care and industrial cleaning formulators use it to enhance detergent viscosity and stabilize foam profiles in liquid cleaners and degreasers. Textile processing operations incorporate it as an emulsifier and softening aid during fiber treatment and finishing baths. It provides essential performance characteristics for high-demand industrial environments. In paper and leather processing, it supports the dispersion of actives and contributes to surface treatment formulations where controlled rheology is required. This versatility makes it a staple in chemical manufacturing. This material is typically supplied as a liquid or paste, depending on the fatty acid composition and temperature. Technical grade is the standard commercial offering for most industrial buyers. Supply specifications are generally defined by hydroxyl value, acid value, and active content. Drum and IBC quantities are the common packaging formats for industrial procurement and global logistics. Contact us for supply of Amides, C12-18 and C18-unsaturated, N-(hydroxyethyl) Request Quote
