- CAS Number
- 68603-38-3
- INCI Name
- Oleamide DEA
Libranol RDG-LA is a clear, amber, viscous liquid composed of rapeseed oil diethanolamide and glycerol. This versatile product finds applications in both personal care and household products. In personal care, it is commonly used in shampoos, conditioners, and water-free soaps, where it imparts foam-boosting, stabilizing, and viscosity-modifying effects, particularly when combined with ether sulfates and other anionic surfactants. Household products, it is utilized in fabric conditioners for similar purposes, contributing to enhanced product performance.
