Soya Amine
Water Treatment
Soya Amine is a mixture of primary aliphatic amines derived from hydrogenated soybean fatty acids, primarily composed of C16–C18 alkyl chains, and typically appears as a pale yellow to amber viscous liquid with a mild amine odor. It is insoluble in water but soluble in alcohols, hydrocarbons, and other organic solvents. In water treatment, Soya Amine functions as a cationic surfactant and corrosion inhibitor, forming protective films on metal surfaces to prevent acid and oxidative damage in boilers, cooling towers, and closed-loop systems. It is also used as a flotation agent, antifoaming additive, and sludge dispersant in wastewater treatment, benefiting from its surface activity and film-forming properties.
