Tallow Diamine EO
Industrial Applications
Tallow Diamine 3 EO is primarily used in the oil and gas industry as a corrosion inhibitor, emulsifier, and asphaltene dispersant in drilling fluids, production chemicals, and pipeline treatments. Its dual amine groups and ethoxylated chains enable it to form protective films on metal surfaces, stabilize emulsions, and improve the dispersion of heavy organics, helping to prevent equipment corrosion and enhance fluid handling.
Physical Properties
Tallow Diamine 3 EO typically appears as a pale yellow to amber viscous liquid with a mild amine odor. The ethoxylation imparts improved water solubility compared to non-ethoxylated diamines, while maintaining high surface activity and compatibility with both aqueous and hydrocarbon-based systems.
Industrial Applications
Tallow Diamine 12 EO is used in the oil and gas industry as a corrosion inhibitor, emulsifier, and asphaltene dispersant in drilling fluids, production chemicals, and pipeline treatments. Its dual amine groups and extended ethoxylated chains allow it to stabilize oil-water emulsions, form protective films on metal surfaces, and disperse heavy organics, enhancing flow assurance and protecting equipment.
Physical Properties
Tallow Diamine 12 EO typically appears as a pale yellow to amber viscous liquid with a mild amine odor. The high degree of ethoxylation provides improved water solubility compared to lower EO analogs while maintaining strong surface activity, emulsifying, and corrosion-inhibiting properties.
Industrial Applications
Tallow Diamine 15 EO is used in the oil and gas industry as a corrosion inhibitor, emulsifier, and asphaltene or paraffin dispersant in drilling fluids, production chemicals, and pipeline treatments. Its hydrophobic C16–C18 alkyl backbone combined with multiple ethylene oxide groups allows it to form durable protective films on metal surfaces, stabilize water-in-oil emulsions, and improve compatibility across hydrocarbon and aqueous systems.
Physical Properties
Tallow Diamine 15 EO appears as a pale yellow to amber viscous liquid with a mild amine-like odor. Its high degree of ethoxylation provides full solubility in water and polar solvents, while maintaining excellent emulsifying, dispersing, and corrosion-inhibiting characteristics.
