Stearyl Amine Distilled
Oil and Gas
Stearyl Amine Distilled is a high-purity, saturated primary fatty amine derived from stearic acid, typically appearing as a white to off-white waxy solid or flakes at room temperature, with a faint amine-like odor. It is insoluble in water but soluble in alcohols and organic solvents. In the oil and gas industry, Stearyl Amine Distilled is primarily used as a corrosion inhibitor, emulsifier, and flotation collector. It forms hydrophobic films on metal surfaces to protect against corrosion, aids in stabilizing emulsions in drilling fluids and production systems, and enhances mineral recovery in froth flotation processes due to its strong surface activity and selective adsorption on mineral surfaces.
