N,N-Dimethylhexadecylamine（Cat No.:R028746）is a long-chain tertiary amine with the molecular formula C18H39N, consisting of a 16-carbon (hexadecyl) alkyl chain bonded to a nitrogen atom bearing two methyl groups. This compound appears as a waxy solid or viscous liquid and is sparingly soluble in water but soluble in organic solvents. It is used as an intermediate in the synthesis of quaternary ammonium compounds, surfactants, corrosion inhibitors, and antistatic agents. The long hydrophobic chain imparts surface-active properties, making it valuable in formulations for cosmetics, textiles, and industrial cleaning products where amphiphilic behavior is beneficial.
