Lauramidopropylamine oxide

CAS: 61792-31-2

Overview

Lauramidopropylamine oxide (CAS 61792-31-2 ) is an amphoteric surfactant derived from lauric acid, functioning as a foam booster, viscosity modifier, and conditioning agent across personal care and cleaning formulations.

It performs across a broad pH range, making it a practical co-surfactant in both acidic and alkaline systems. In shampoos, body washes, and liquid hand soaps, it boosts and stabilizes foam while improving the sensory feel of the rinse.

Household and industrial cleaners use it to enhance foam density and extend foam persistence in spray, gel, and concentrate formats. In fabric softeners and textile processing, it aids surface wetting and improves the deposition of conditioning actives.

The chemical supports uniform coating or treatment penetration in paper and leather processing operations. It is highly effective at modifying surface tension across various fiber substrates and industrial materials.

Lauramidopropylamine oxide is typically supplied as an aqueous solution, with active content commonly around 30–35%. Both cosmetic-grade and industrial-grade material are available to meet the differing purity requirements of formulators.

Personal care formulators and industrial cleaning manufacturers can select grades based on specific application needs. Packaging ranges from drums to IBC totes depending on the volume requirements of the facility.
