What is N,n-dimethylglucamine?
N,N-Dimethylglucamine (CAS 76326-99-3) is a sugar-derived amino alcohol.
Where is N,n-dimethylglucamine used?
- Pharmaceutical manufacturing: salt formation with acidic APIs to improve solubility and bioavailability, including injectable and oral dosage forms
- Personal care: buffering and chelating agent in skin-conditioning products, sequestering metal ions that degrade actives
- Water treatment: chelation controls scale-forming metal ions in process water systems
- It also acts as a solubilizing carrier in contrast media and diagnostic formulations.
Commercial specifications
- Pharmaceutical grade meets USP purity requirements
- Packaging from kilogram quantities to bulk drums
