A grade-specific Safety Data Sheet (SDS) — with the complete hazard classification, handling precautions, and transport information — is supplied with every shipment and available on request. Confirm all safety and regulatory details against the SDS for your specific grade.
Request SDS →Oleamide DEA (oleic acid diethanolamide, CAS 93-83-4) is the diethanolamide of oleic acid, a nonionic surfactant. Established uses include foam boosting and stabilizing, viscosity building/thickening, emulsification and wetting, and corrosion inhibition in metalworking fluids.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is oleamide DEA?
Oleamide DEA (oleic acid diethanolamide, CAS 93-83-4, formula C22H43NO3) is the diethanolamide of oleic acid, a nonionic surfactant used in cleaning, personal-care, and metalworking formulations.
What is oleic acid diethanolamide used for?
It is used for foam boosting and stabilizing, viscosity building and thickening, emulsification and wetting as a nonionic surfactant, and corrosion inhibition in metalworking fluids.
How does oleamide DEA build viscosity and boost foam?
As a fatty diethanolamide it interacts with anionic surfactant micelles to thicken liquid systems and to stabilize and increase foam, which is why it is paired with primary surfactants in cleaning formulations.
What HS code applies to oleamide DEA?
Oleamide DEA is classified under HS 2924.19, acyclic amides and their derivatives, other. Confirm the destination tariff line with your customs broker before import.
What is the cost of bulk oleamide DEA?
Bulk pricing depends on volume, packaging (drums, totes, or IBCs), and freight. Request a quote with your quantity and ship-to location; a CoA and SDS are included with bulk orders.
