INTRODUCTION
Tridodecylamine is a tertiary fatty amine. Its structure depicts 3 long carbon chains. They are responsible for the hydrophobic nature of the molecule and its hierarchy of applications. It is naturally found in Bos taurus and has a role as rat / mouse metabolite.
Manufacture
The product is manufactured in a condensation process involving dodecanol and ammonia. Some processes use dodecyl bromide.
