Ethoxylated stearylamine

Ethoxylated stearylamine (CAS 26635-92-7), also supplied under the designation RY 130T2, is a cationic surfactant derived from the ethoxylation of stearylamine. It functions as an emulsifier, dispersant, and rheology modifier across textile, agricultural, and cleaning applications.

In textile processing, it acts as a softening and antistatic agent, improving fabric handle and reducing static charge buildup during finishing. Agricultural formulations rely on it as an adjuvant in herbicide and pesticide concentrates.

This chemical improves droplet adhesion and active ingredient dispersion on leaf surfaces. Industrial and institutional cleaning products use it for degreasing and soil dispersion, particularly in formulations targeting hard surfaces and metal parts.

In personal care and cosmetics, it supports emulsion stability and conditioning performance in rinse-off products. Ethoxylated stearylamine is typically supplied as a liquid or paste, depending on the degree of ethoxylation.

Grades vary by ethylene oxide content, commonly expressed as moles of EO per mole of amine, which directly determines HLB value and application suitability. It is available in technical grade for industrial use.

Standard packaging for bulk procurement includes drum and IBC options. The material meets rigorous industrial specifications to ensure consistent performance across diverse manufacturing sectors and chemical processing environments.
