Mosselman Superamide LD (120-40-1) is a lauric diethanolamide obtained by the reaction of lauric acid esters with diethanolamine. This amide finds use in a variety of cleaners, bath products and shampo where it acts as a viscosity builder, for foam boosting and foam stabilizing, as dispersing agent, emulsifier and superfatting agent. Superamide LD improves also the detergency of other surfactants.
