General description

Didodecylamine is a secondary amine. It is reported as standard amine enhancer and its dermal enhancement properties has been studied using in vitro diffusion cell techniques. Solidification point of dodecylamine has been reported to be 26.2°C.

Application

Didodecylamine may be used:
  • to promote the crystal growth of 2D nanosheets of GdOCl with approximately square cross sections
  • to investigate the effect of alkyl chain length of amine on phase transfer of aqueous synthesized gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) from water to toluene
  • in the preparation of novel class of liquid crystalline complexes, by the interaction of copper nitrate
