Diisotridecylamine (DITDA), identified by its CAS number 57157-80-9, is a complex organic molecule with a chemical structure that dictates its broad applicability across various industries. As a branched-chain tertiary amine with the molecular formula C26H55N and a molecular weight of 381.73 g/mol, DITDA possesses a unique set of properties that make it highly sought after. NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. provides this compound, enabling numerous industrial advancements.

The defining characteristic of DITDA is its structure as a tertiary amine, meaning the nitrogen atom is bonded to three carbon atoms. In this case, the nitrogen is attached to two isotridecyl groups and one hydrogen atom (although the chemical name implies a secondary amine, the common usage and applications described often relate to a tertiary amine structure or its derivatives. For clarity in this context, we will refer to its utility as described in industrial literature). The ‘isotridecyl’ groups are branched alkyl chains, typically C13 in length. This branched, high molecular weight alkyl chain structure is fundamental to DITDA's excellent oil solubility and its ability to function effectively in non-polar environments. This contrasts with simpler, linear amines which may have different solubility profiles.

Furthermore, DITDA exhibits remarkable thermal stability. This property is crucial for applications where chemicals are subjected to high temperatures, such as in lubricants or during certain chemical synthesis processes. The robust nature of its molecular bonds ensures that DITDA does not readily degrade or lose its functionality under thermal stress, making it a reliable component in demanding environments. This attribute is directly linked to its use as a Diisotridecylamine in lubricants and as a high-temperature resistant additive.

The surface activity of Diisotridecylamine is another key property. Its amphiphilic nature, with a hydrophobic tail (the isotridecyl chains) and a polar head (the amine group), allows it to orient at interfaces between different phases, such as oil and water, or liquid and solid. This surface activity is critical for its roles as a corrosion inhibitor, emulsifier, and wetting agent. The ability to modify surface tension and create stable emulsions or protective films is leveraged in a wide array of applications, from agricultural formulations to industrial cleaning agents.

Understanding the chemical properties of Diisotridecylamine is essential for harnessing its full potential. NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. offers high-purity DITDA, ensuring that its key attributes – oil solubility, thermal stability, and surface activity – are consistently delivered. This scientific understanding underpins its utility as a versatile chemical intermediate and additive across numerous industrial sectors, including its role as cosmetic raw materials diisotridecylamine.
