(Tetradecyl dimethylamine oxide CAS 3332-27-2)

Overview of Tetradecyl Dimethylamine Oxide

Tetradecyl dimethylamine oxide is an organic compound that belongs to the category of amphoteric surfactants. The long-chain alkyl groups in its molecular structure endow it with good hydrophobic properties, while the amine oxide groups give it hydrophilicity and zwitterionic properties. This unique structure enables tetradecyl dimethylamine oxide to perform excellently in various environments. At 25 ℃, it appears as a colorless to slightly yellow liquid with a content of 24-26% and a pH value (5% aqueous solution) of 7-8. This substance has various characteristics, including foaming, stability, oxidation resistance, stain removal, and thickening. Therefore, it can be widely used in alkaline detergent, detergent containing hypochlorite, foaming agent, foam cleaner, etc.
