APPLICATIONS

Alkanolamides are nonionic surfactants impart excellent viscosity enhancing and foam stabilization in anionic based systems like hand washing liquids, shampoos, body cleansers and other personal care products. They act as lubricant agent, thickening agent and wetting agent. Their very good emulsifying property also provides applications in the field of pharmaceuticals, agricultural preparations, and textile processing; rust inhibiting, latex stabilizing, anti-static function in textiles, dye-leveling, waterproofing and  water-in-oil additives  as well as very good emulsifying. Alkanolamides are manufactured by condensation of mono- or diethanolamine and the methylester of long chain fatty acids, whereby the monoethanolamides are further ethoxylated.
