Octadecanamine CAS 124-30-1

Application:

1. Used as a color former for color photographs, as a raw material for resins, emulsifiers, fungicides, surfactants, and textile auxiliaries.

2. It is used as an intermediate in organic synthesis, and is used to produce octadecyl quaternary ammonium salts and various additives, such as thickeners for cationic greases, mineral processing agents, pesticides and asphalt emulsifiers, antistatic agents for fabrics, softeners, wetting agents and waterproofing agents, surfactants, fungicides, color film color formers, and corrosion inhibitors for oil refining equipment. Octadecyl diethanolamine [10213-78-2] can be obtained with a yield of nearly 80% by combining octadecylamine with ethylene oxide in a molar ratio of 1:2 and reacting at 150-190°C. Octadecyl diethanolamine is a nonionic antistatic agent that can be used in polypropylene, polystyrene, and ABS resins.

3. Organic synthesis. Corrosion inhibitor. Emulsifier. Fungicide.
