GENERAL
DESCRIPTION AND APPLICATIONS
|
Sarcosinate
Surfactants are mild, biodegradable
anionic surfactants derived from fatty
acids and sarcosine (amino acid). These
compounds features lather building and
resistance to sebum delathering in cleaners,
polymers, industrial chemicals, petroleum
and lubricant products. Sodium Lauriyl Sarcosinate
is used as a foaming
and cleansing agent for shampoo, shaving foams
and foam washes.
It is used as a corrosion inhibitor
and in formulating textile treatment agents. |

GENERAL
DESCRIPTION OF SARCOSINE
|
Sarcosine , also known as methyl-glycoccoll, is an amino acid intermediate
naturally found in the metabolism of choline to glycine. Commercially, synthetic
sarcosine is obtained by the reaction of methylamine with monochloracetic acid.
It is adeliquescent crystal; having sweet taste; dissolve in water,
slightly soluble in alcohol; decomposes at 208 C. It is used in manufacturing
biodegradable surfactants and toothpastes as well as in biological
applications.
