  • Applications

    N-[3-(dodecylamino)propyl]glycine (CAS 34395-72-7) is commonly used as a surfactant and formulation additive across multiple industries. In cosmetics and personal care, it functions as a mild cleansing agent and emulsifier in shampoos, cleansers, and related products. In household and cleaning products, it acts as a surfactant and wetting agent in detergents and surface cleaners. In industrial manufacturing, it serves as an emulsifier and dispersant to stabilize pigment suspensions and polymer blends, and as a processing aid in coatings, inks, and adhesives formulations. In polymers/plastics, it may act as a surface modifier or compatibilizer to improve wetting and adhesion. In electronics and precision cleaning, it is evaluated for specialty cleaning formulations that remove residues without leaving harsh deposits. It is also explored as an adjuvant in agricultural formulations to improve spray spreading and leaf wetting. Use is subject to local regulations and formulation limits.
