Amphoteric surfactants are anionic surfactants, appearing as white or pale yellow powders. They possess strong detergency and degreasing power, excellent wetting and penetration, outstanding foaming ability, high cost-effectiveness, and excellent alkali resistance. They also exhibit good dispersing and anti-redeposition properties and have wide compatibility.

Primarily used in laundry detergents, dishwashing liquids, industrial degreasing agents, and textile washing auxiliaries, LAO is a commonly used basic raw material in detergent production.

• Amphoteric Nature: Aqueous solutions are cationic under acidic conditions and nonionic under alkaline conditions
• Stability: Good low-temperature stability

Lauramidopropylamine Oxide (LAO) is mainly prepared by the oxidation reaction of cocoylpropyl dimethyl tertiary amine. The specific process involves reacting cocoylpropyl dimethyl tertiary amine with an oxidizing agent (such as hydrogen peroxide) under specific conditions to generate a compound with an amine oxide structure.

Precise control of the reaction temperature, reaction time, and amount of oxidizing agent is required during the reaction to ensure the purity and quality of the product.

• Packaging: Typically packaged in plastic or iron drums (50 kg, 200 kg, or ton drums)
• Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, protected from moisture and direct sunlight
• Shelf Life: 12 months

• Shampoos: Makes hair smoother, easier to comb, and produces finer, shinier foam
• Personal Hygiene: Suitable for shower gels, facial cleansers, and hand soaps; provides thickening, reduces irritation, and enhances efficacy
• Baby Care: Ideal for baby care products due to extremely low irritation to skin and eyes

• Cleaning Agents: Used in hard surface cleaning for tableware, restrooms, and building exteriors
• Specialized Industries: Widely used in oilfield and textile industries
