  • Applications

    beta-alanine,n-dodecyl-, monosodium salt (CAS 3546-96-1) is an amphiphilic amino-acid-derived surfactant commonly employed as a detergent, emulsifier, and wetting agent in diverse formulations. Typical applications include household and industrial cleaners (surfactant and foaming agent), personal care products (mild cleansing and emulsification), coatings, inks, and paints (wetting and pigment dispersion), polymer and plastics processing (emulsification and stabilization of latexes and dispersions), and agricultural formulations as an adjuvant to improve spray deposition and coverage.
