DESCRIPTION:
In chemistry, a fatty amine is loosely defined as any amine possessing a mostly linear hydrocarbon chain of eight or more carbon atoms.
Fatty Amine Ethoxylates are typically prepared from the more abundant fatty acids, with vegetable or seed-oils being the ultimate starting material.
As such they are often mixtures of chain lengths, ranging up to about C22.
Fatty Amine Ethoxylate can be classified as oleochemicals.
Commercially important members include coco amine, oleylamine, tallow amine, and soya amine.
These compounds and their derivatives are used as fabric softeners, froth flotation agents (purification of ores), corrosion inhibitors, lubricants and friction modifiers.
Fatty Amine Ethoxylate is also the basis for a variety of cosmetic formulations.
Fatty Amine Ethoxylate is nonionic surfactants resulting from the reaction of alkylamines with ethylene oxide.
Fatty Amine Ethoxylate plays an important role in the Oil & Gas, Crop Solutions, and textile processing markets.
Fatty Amine Ethoxylate acts as solubilizers, wetting agents, anti-corrosives, and adjuvants.
Fatty Amine Ethoxylate category include oleyl amine ethoxylates and coco amine ethoxylates, and are marketed under the AMINOX series.
Depending on the degree of ethoxylation, the manufacturing conditions and the pH adjustment, ethoxylates based on primary amines display, to a more or less pronounced extent, the characteristics of cationic surfactans.
The affinity to various different surfaces that tend to be anionics is particularly high, a property which can be utilised beneficially in the textile and leather processing industries, but also in metal treatment (antistatics, improved grip, hydrophobing, etc.).
Fatty Amine Ethoxylate and the alkylpropylene diamine ethoxylates which we supply can also be used as emulsifieres, for example in the processing of mineral oil and bitumen.

Its secondary form is used as a lubricant, anti-caking agent, and fuel additives.
Fatty amine ethoxylates are produced by hydrogenation of unsaturated fatty nitriles and are more water-dispersible.
As a corrosion inhibitor, fatty amine thioesters can prevent iron corrosion by providing a sulfur-containing ethoxylated polyolefin.
This thiocyanate is used to protect ferrous metals in severe environments such as acidic, salty, and high-temperature environments.

PRODUCTION AND REACTIONS OF FATTY AMINE ETHOXYLATE:
Fatty Amine Ethoxylate is commonly prepared from fatty acids; which are themselves obtained from natural sources, typically seed-oils.
The overall reaction is sometimes referred to as the Nitrile Process and begins with a reaction between the fatty acid and ammonia at high temperature (>250 °C) and in the presence of a metal oxide catalyst (e.g., alumina or zinc oxide) to give the fatty nitrile.
RCOOH + NH3 → RC≡N + 2 H2O
The fatty amine is obtained from this by hydrogenation with any of a number of reagents, including Raney nickel or cobalt, and copper chromite catalysts.
When conducted in the presence of excess ammonia the hydrogenation affords the primary amines.
RCN + 2 H2 → RCH2NH2
In the absence of ammonia, secondary and tertiary amines are produced.
2 RCN + 4 H2 → (RCH2)2NH + NH3
3 RCN + 6 H2 → (RCH2)3N + 2 NH3
Fatty secondary and tertiary amines:
Alternatively, secondary and tertiary fatty amines can be generated by the reaction of fatty alcohols and fatty alkyl bromides with (di)alkylamines.
For example 1-bromododecane reacts with dimethyl amine:
RBr + HNMe2 → RNMe2 + HBr
By reaction with tertiary amines, long-chain alkyl bromides give quaternary ammonium salts, which are used as phase transfer catalysts.
Secondary and tertiary amines may also be produced by the Leuckart reaction.
This reaction effects N-methylation using formaldehyde with formic acid as the reductant.
These tertiary amines are precursors to quaternary ammonium salts used for a variety of applications.
