Name | Dodecyldimethylammonium chloride |
Synonyms | diethyl maleate bis(do dec y dimethyl ammonium chloride) |
Molecular Formula | C14H32ClN |
Molar Mass | 249.86358 |
Physical and Chemical Properties | Quaternary ammonium cationic surfactants are commonly used as antistatic agents for textiles. The melting point is high and often decomposes before the melting point. |
Use | This product has good anti-static effect when used on acrylic and polypropylene fibers. Treating fibers at a low concentration (bath ratio 1:20) of 0.5% to 1% can meet the anti-static requirements and have a certain degree of washability. |
The synthesis of this product involves two steps. Firstly, the quaternary ammonium reaction between dodecyl tertiary amine and chloroethanol is carried out to generate dodecyl dimethyl hydroxyethyl ammonium chloride; This product reacts with maleic anhydride to obtain the final product.
In a reactor with a reflux condenser, add 106.5 parts of dodecyl amine, raise the temperature to 80 ℃, and add 40.25 parts of chloroethanol dropwise. After the addition is completed, the temperature is raised to 100 ℃ and the reaction is carried out for 12 hours to obtain dodecyl dimethyl hydroxyethyl ammonium chloride. Then, the prepared dodecyl dimethyl hydroxyethyl ammonium chloride and 24.5 parts of maleic anhydride are added to the esterification reactor, followed by a certain amount of toluene and an appropriate amount of catalyst concentrated sulfuric acid. The temperature is raised to 118 ℃ and the reaction is carried out at a constant temperature for 8 hours. Separate the water and steam out the water carrying agent toluene to obtain the product diethyl maleate bis (dodecyldimethylammonium chloride).
Low toxicity. The storage period is 36 months.
