OriginDerived from fatty alcohols, typically sourced from coconut or palm kernel oil hydrogenation. Synthesized through ethoxylation of lauryl alcohol with ethylene oxide to create the conditioning agent.
Dodecanamine appears as a yellow liquid with an ammonia-like odor. Insoluble in water and less dense than water. Hence floats on water. Contact may irritate skin, eyes and mucous membranes. May be toxic by ingestion, inhalation or skin absorption. Used to make other chemicals.
Solubility Miscible in ethanol, ethyl ether, and benzene.
