DefinitionThis section has been translated automatically.
Stearamide is the amide of stearic acid (octadecanamide) with the molecular formula: C18H37NO, "DEA" the acronym for diethanolamine, a colourless amino alcohol.
The stearic acid amide (fatty acid amide) DEA-distearate is used in cosmetic formulations. The substance mixture acts as an opacifier (reduces transparency and light transmission by clouding the product), viscosity regulator (increases or decreases the viscosity (toughness) of cosmetic products) and foaming agent (increases foam formation and improves volume, structure and durability of the foam).
