China and Germany are the leading exporters of Hexadecyldimethylamine (CAS 112-69-6), collectively accounting for over 60% of global export value in 2023–2024, while the United States, India, and South Korea represent the largest importing markets. Imports by India and South Korea have grown steadily since 2022, coinciding with moderate upward pressure on Hexadecyldimethylamine prices amid tightening supply from European producers.
Hexadecyldimethylamine is a colorless to pale yellow, viscous liquid at room temperature with a characteristic amine odor and low volatility. It is a tertiary aliphatic amine, classified as an organic chemical intermediate. Primarily used in the synthesis of cationic surfactants—especially quaternary ammonium compounds such as cetrimonium chloride—it serves as a key building block in fabric softeners, hair conditioners, and antimicrobial formulations. Its main application areas include personal care products, industrial cleaning agents, and oilfield chemicals, where it functions as a corrosion inhibitor or emulsifier.
Barlene(R) tertiary amines are used as chemical intermediates for the manufacture of quaternary ammonium compounds, amine oxide and betaine surfactants
