Disodium oleamido MEA sulfosuccinate

Disodium oleamido MEA sulfosuccinate (CAS 68479-64-1), also known commercially as Mackanate OM, is an anionic sulfosuccinate surfactant derived from oleic acid. It functions as a mild foaming agent, emulsifier, and cleansing base across personal care and industrial cleaning formulations. In shampoos, body washes, and facial cleansers, it delivers gentle lather.

With low irritation potential, it is a preferred co-surfactant in mild or sensitive-skin formulations. Home care and industrial cleaning products use it to boost foam stability and improve soil dispersion. It is frequently utilized in liquid detergents and hard-surface cleaners. Textile processing operations incorporate it as an emulsifier and wetting agent during scouring and dyeing stages.

Consistent dispersion of oils and finishes is critical in these applications. Leather and paper manufacturing also employ it to control foam and improve surface treatment uniformity during wet processing. The chemical is typically supplied as an aqueous liquid solution, commonly at around 35–40% active content. It is available in technical and cosmetic grades for various industrial needs.

Cosmetic-grade material meets purity requirements for use in leave-on and rinse-off personal care products. Bulk supply is standard in drums and intermediate bulk containers (IBCs).
