Chemical Properties N-Oleoylsarcosine is a surfactant and lipid compound composed of a long-chain fatty acid (oleic acid) and a sarcosine molecule. It exhibits properties suitable for various applications.
Applications – Used as a high-efficiency, ashless corrosion inhibitor in metal rust prevention, particularly for copper, aluminum alloys, and carbon steel.
– Employed in the preparation of surfactants, where its potassium, sodium, and alkanolamine salts exhibit high foamability with delicate and long-lasting foam, making it suitable for high-end facial cleansers, detergents, and cleaning product formulations.
– Enhances yarn bundling capacity when formulated in chemical fiber oils.
– Also used in leather, petroleum products, electroplating, mineral flotation, and oil extraction industries.
Storage Conditions Store in a cool, dry place, away from moisture and strong oxidizing agents. The storage stability period is at least 12 months.
