  • Applications

    Hydroxyethyl myristyl oxyhydroxypropyl decanamide (CAS 129983-63-7) is commonly used as a nonionic surfactant and conditioning/emollient in cosmetics and personal care, where it acts as an emulsifier, surfactant, and thickener-supporting ingredient in skin and hair care formulations. It is also employed in household cleaners and cleansing products as a surfactant and dispersion aid. In industrial manufacturing, it may serve as a processing aid, lubricant, or antistatic additive in polymer formulations, coatings, or inks. Additionally, it can be used as an intermediate in the synthesis of other surfactants or specialty additives. Use is formulation- and regulation-dependent.
