Macadamia lipid based surfactants and derivatives and process for preparing same

摘要

Novel macadamia-lipid based esters, derivatives, surfactants and emollients are disclosed, as well as their use in the production of surface active derivatives or non-surface active esters and ester emollients. The esters, surfactants and fatty derivatives are useful as emollients, dispersants, emulsifiers, and conditioners for hair care and skin care products. For example, derivatives such as amides of Macadamia fatty triglycerides (“MFTG”)/Monoethanolamine; Acyl Amidopropyl Dimethyl Amines of MFTG as cationic surfactants; Betaines based on MFTG; Esters of MFTG based Fatty Acids and Isostearyl alcohol or PPG-3 Myristyl Ether or Ethoxylated C12-C15 Alcohol or Ethoxylated cetearyl alcohol; Quaternaries based on MFTG and Amino-propyl Dimethylamine; Sulfosuccinates based on MFTG-MEA Amides; and sulfosuccinates based on MFTG-Isopropanolamines have been prepared. Derivatives may also include those involving other reactive groups known to those skilled in the art.
