Lauramine Oxide (OB-2)
Alternate Name: Lauryldimethylamine Oxide , N, N-Dimethyldodecylamine N-oxide, Dodecyldimethylamine Oxide
CAS Number: 1643-20-5
Features and Applications
OB-2 has great capacity for cleaning, conditioning, thickening, softening and withstanding static electricity. It presents the possibility for minor irritation on eyes and skin.
It can be used as a foaming agent, foam stabilizer, conditioner, thickener, and anti-static agent for the formulation of shampoos, liquid detergents, and dishwashing detergents. Great synergistic effects will be generated between OB-2 and other active matters used for the formulation of shampoos, thus improving viscosity and contributing to better conditioning effects. Hair will become bright, smooth and easy to comb after using such shampoos. Our OB-2 is also suitable for formulation of baby shampoo. It is also a good choice of raw material for the synthesis of ampholytic surfactants.
