Standard Applications: Mackamine MY is a light colored amine oxide that provides good foam stability. Mackamine MY is compatible with most surfactants and because there are no amide or ester groups, Mackamine MY will not hydrolyse in acid systems. It is also stable in alkaline products. Amine oxides can be formulated with anionic, nonionic, and cationic products and are mildly cationic under acidic conditions. Being somewhat higher in molecular weight than Lauramine Oxide, Mackamine MY provides greater viscosity building properties and finds use especially in thickened hypochlorite systems. The higher molecular weight amine oxides provide softness and conditioning properties in Personal Care products. Chemical Name: Myristamine Oxide CAS No.: 3332-27-2 Information provided by Solvay.
