Product Description
Isoalkyloxypropylamine Oxide, CAS 218141-49-2, is a low-foam ether amine oxide surfactant of the C9-11 isoalkyloxypropyl dimethylamine N-oxide series; a representative molecular formula is C₁₄H₃₁NO₂.
Synonyms: Amines, C9-11-isoalkyloxypropyl dimethyl, N-oxides; Low-foam amine oxide; Ether amine oxide surfactant; Dimethyl isoalkyloxypropyl amine oxide.
CAS: 218141-49-2.
Molecular formula: C₁₄H₃₁NO₂ (representative, C9 member).
It is a water-miscible, colorless to yellow or amber liquid normally supplied at about 50% active content in water.
Typical properties include viscosity of about 80 mPa·s at 21.7 °C, relative density of about 1.035, boiling point of about 99 °C and flash point above 100 °C.
It is used in low-foam hard-surface cleaners, all-purpose cleaners, glass cleaners, vehicle cleaners, bathroom cleaners and industrial degreasing.
It is also used in electroplating pretreatment and in formulations requiring low-VOC or solvent-free cleaning performance.
The ether amine oxide structure provides high detergency and wetting with very low foam generation for machine cleaning, spray cleaning and recirculation systems; it is a low-foam surfactant rather than a defoamer.
Confirm active content, appearance, viscosity, density, pH and amine value; the final foam profile depends on the complete formulation.
Store in tightly closed, corrosion-resistant containers in a cool, ventilated area away from strong oxidizers, and avoid freezing and prolonged high temperature.
Confirm the current product-specific specification.
Confirm packaging with the requested quantity and destination requirements.
Document requirements should be confirmed from the current specification, SDS, COA, or other product-specific files.
Regulated-use suitability must be confirmed separately with current product-specific documentation.

FAQ - Technical & Supply Chain
-
Q:
What is Isoalkyloxypropylamine Oxide and how is it identified?
A: Isoalkyloxypropylamine Oxide is a low-foam ether amine oxide surfactant with CAS 218141-49-2. It is a water-soluble cleaning surfactant used in industrial and institutional formulations. -
Q:
What is Isoalkyloxypropylamine Oxide used for?
A: It is used in low-foam hard-surface cleaners, all-purpose cleaners, glass cleaners, vehicle cleaners, bathroom cleaners and industrial degreasing. It is also used in electroplating pretreatment and formulations requiring low-VOC or solvent-free cleaning performance. -
Q:
Why is Isoalkyloxypropylamine Oxide described as low-foam?
A: The ether amine oxide structure provides high detergency and wetting with very low foam generation, making it useful in machine cleaning, spray cleaning and recirculation systems. It is a low-foam surfactant, not a defoamer, so final foam depends on the full formulation. -
Q:
What is the typical active content and appearance?
A: This type of amine oxide is commonly supplied at about 50% active content in water. It is typically a colorless to yellow or amber liquid with a viscosity near 80 mPa·s and a relative density near 1.035. -
Q:
How should Isoalkyloxypropylamine Oxide be stored and handled?
A: Store it in tightly closed, corrosion-resistant containers in a cool, ventilated area away from strong oxidizers and incompatible materials. Avoid freezing and prolonged high temperature, and use normal chemical-handling PPE.
