SAPDMA (Stearamidopropyl Dimethylamine) Production Cost Reports

SAPDMA (Stearamidopropyl dimethylamine) production cost report provides a comprehensive analysis and know-how for setting up a SAPDMA (Stearamidopropyl dimethylamine) production plant. The study covers all the requisite aspects that one needs to know for the production of SAPDMA (Stearamidopropyl dimethylamine). This includes manufacturing processes, raw material requirements, utility requirements, infrastructure requirements, machinery and technology requirements, manpower requirements, packaging requirements, transportation requirements, etc.

SAPDMA (Stearamidopropyl dimethylamine) is a fatty amine that works as an emulsifier and a positively charged or a cationic surfactant. It is obtained by combining refined vegetable oils like rapeseed oil with 3,3-dimethylaminopropylamine (DMAPA) and then heating the mix. It appears to be a yellowish-waxy flake. It is a lipid-based conditioning agent. It was made as a substitute for silicones as they don't break down easily, and this compound is biodegradable.

It has cleansing properties, due to which it is primarily used in hair care products for conditioning and enhancing the hair's appearance. In properties, it is similar to behentrimonium methosulphate and cetrimonium chloride. It is soluble in water and blends with other ingredients easily.

At the normal pH of the conditioner, it is charged positively and becomes electrostatically attracted to damaged hair. It converts into quaternary ammonium in an acidic medium. It has a boiling and melting point of 208-215°C and 49-50°C, respectively.

SAPDMA (Stearamidopropyl dimethylamine) is primarily used as an emulsifier and surfactant in personal care products, particularly in hair care. It is added in shampoos or hair conditioners owing to its antistatic effect. It also acts like a mild surfactant that gets rid of build-up in the hair. It adds a soft, silky feel to the hair as it has a positive charge that offsets the shampoo's negative charge. It doesn't subdue foam and can be sued with anionic surfactants to help build up the formulation's viscosity.
