  • Applications

    Propanoic acid, 2-hydroxy-, compd. with N-[3-(dimethylamino)propyl]-16-methylheptadecanamide (1:1) — CAS number: 55852-15-8 — is an amphiphilic compound that can function as a specialty surfactant and emulsifier. In cosmetics and personal care, it may act as an emulsifier or stabilizer in creams, lotions, and cleansers and help improve dispersion of pigments and active ingredients. In household products, it can be used as a surfactant or foaming aid in cleaners and detergents. In coatings and inks, it may serve as a dispersion aid and flow modifier to improve pigment stability. In polymers and plastics processing, it can serve as a processing aid or additive to improve wetting and compatibility of hydrophobic components. In industrial manufacturing, it may be used as an intermediate for synthesis of more complex amphiphiles or as a solvent/co-solvent in formulation blends. It may also appear as a formulation adjuvant in agricultural actives to enhance spreading and penetration, subject to regulatory limits.
