Does AC-1205 identify one fixed coco amine ethoxylate composition?

No. AC-1205 is generally used for a cocoalkyl amine ethoxylate grade near five EO units, while CAS 61791-14-8 covers a broader coco amine ethoxylate family. Confirm average EO level, amine value, active matter, cloud-point method, physical form and compatibility in the intended formulation.

Can AC-1205 be treated as fully nonionic in an acidic formulation?

Not automatically. The ethoxylated coco amine can become protonated as pH falls, changing charge, solubility and compatibility with anionic components. Evaluate the actual concentrate and use-dilution pH, order of addition, electrolyte level, temperature and storage stability in the intended formulation before approval.

Fatty Amine Ethoxylate AC-1205 CAS 61791-14-8

AC-1205 (CAS 61791-14-8), also called coco amine ethoxylate or ethoxylated cocoamine, is a coco-alkylamine ethoxylate used for emulsification, wetting and dispersing, as well as detergency, antistatic and process-aid applications. We can provide a Certificate of Analysis (COA), Technical Data Sheet (TDS) and Safety Data Sheet (SDS), and help select the grade based on nominal EO number, total and tertiary amine values, water content, color and physical form.

Identity and physicochemical profile

Item	Technical guidance
Correct identity	Amines, coco alkyl, ethoxylated; commercial grade AC-1205
CAS / EC	61791-14-8 / 500-152-2
Composition	UVCB or variable-composition coco-alkylamine ethoxylate; no single molecular formula
Grade distinction	The shared CAS number covers more than one commercial ethoxylation grade and does not define AC-1205 performance by itself
Key controls	Nominal EO, total amine value, tertiary amine value, water, color, pH, physical form and supplier-defined HLB or cloud behavior
Performance boundary	Formulation suitability depends on pH, salts, surfactant system, concentration, temperature and process

Applications and grade selection

AC-1205 is evaluated as a fatty amine ethoxylate for emulsification, wetting, dispersing, detergency, antistatic and process-aid applications in industrial cleaning, textile, metalworking, agrochemical and related formulations. End-use claims require formulation trials and destination-specific regulatory review.

Match the current product by trade grade and specification, not by CAS number alone.
Compare amine values, water, color, physical form, pH-dependent behavior, HLB or cloud characteristics and finished-formulation stability.
For agrochemical or other regulated applications, confirm the exact composition and required market documents before use.

For related amine-ethoxylate surfactant raw materials, see Tallow Amine Ethoxylate TA-15 and Ethoxylated Lauryl Amine.

Storage and handling

Keep the package closed in a dry, ventilated area within the temperature range stated in the TDS and SDS. Viscosity or physical form may change with temperature; follow the supplier’s instructions for warming, homogenization and representative sampling.

Safety, documentation and procurement

Fatty amine ethoxylates can be hazardous to eyes, skin or the environment depending on grade and concentration. Follow the current SDS for PPE, spill control and disposal. A quotation should include the reference grade, application, quantity, package, destination and document needs.
