Stearylamine is a Primary Amine derived from natural fatty acids, appearing as a waxy white solid. It is a critical functional intermediate used to produce cationic surfactants, softeners, and emulsifying agents.

With a 98% min assay, this chemical provides excellent surface-active properties and substantive behavior on various substrates. It is highly valued for its hydrophobic characteristics and ability to modify surface tension in industrial fluids.

This high-purity fatty amine also acts as an internal lubricant and mold release agent in polymer processing. It ensures superior dispersion of additives and improves the processability of rubber and plastic compounds.

Stearylamine
  • Textile Auxiliaries: Key raw material for fabric softeners and antistatic agents that improve fiber handle and texture.
  • Plastic & Rubber: Used as a processing aid and internal lubricant to reduce friction during extrusion and molding.
  • Bitumen Additives: Functions as an adhesion promoter to enhance the bond between bitumen and mineral aggregates.

Classified as Corrosive (Category 1) and Aquatic Chronic (Category 1). Requires Acid-Resistant Aprons, Face Shields, and strict containment protocols.

Supplied in 25 kg Bags or 160 kg Fiber/Steel Drums.
