Proposed Additions edit

Hello, my name is Kim, and I work at MSL, a PR agency representing paints and performance coatings company Akzo Nobel. I am working closely with Akzo Nobel scientists and experts in the field to clarify the benefits and uses of fatty amines within the chemistry community, and I would like to propose additions to this page:


  • Within the first paragraph:

1. After the sentence, “They are often mixtures.,” add the following sentence: "The chain lengths [1] and level of unsaturation determine the solubility characteristics of the Fatty_acid ."

2. In the last sentence, after “Some applications of these compounds are in…”, include “ Friction_modifiers for Lubricants” within the list before “fabric softeners.”


  • Under Production and Reactions:

1. At the end of the first sentence within the first paragraph, add “ Triglycerides" to the end of sentence so that it reads “typically seed-oils or triglycerides.”

2. Within the last paragraph beginning with “Alternatively,” change “using” to “used” and include the following phrase at the end of the sentence after “applications”: ",and include detergency in Lubricants."

3. Add a new closing paragraph:

"Fatty amines can be further ethoxylated to increase the polarity [2]. This is carried out by reaction with Ethylene_oxide. Potassium_hydroxide is typically used as a catalyst in this reaction. The overall distribution range of the ethoxylation can be varied depending on catalyst and reaction conditions."
