Cocamide DEA 6501

INCI Name: Cocamide DEA

CAS Number: 68603-42-9

Molecular Formula: RCON(CH2CH2OH)2

Description:Cocamide DEA 6501, CAS No. 68603-42-9, is a nonionic alkanolamide surfactant with the INCI Name Cocamide DEA and the molecular formula RCON(CH2CH2OH)2. Transfar supplies two specifications: a 1:1 grade with amide content of at least 77% and an amine value of no more than 30 mgKOH/g, and a 1:1.5 grade with amide content of at least 70% and an amine value of 60-100 mgKOH/g. Both grades are yellow viscous liquids with a pH of 9.5-10.5 in a 1% solution prepared in 10% ethanol.

Cocamide DEA 6501 has no cloud point, disperses readily in water and provides wetting, thickening, cleaning and foam-stabilizing functions. It is compatible with nonionic and anionic surfactants. Typical applications include shampoo, laundry liquid, household detergent, metal cleaning agents, chemical-fiber oils and textile auxiliaries. Transfar supports bulk purchasing and export inquiries with TDS, SDS and batch documentation available upon request.

Applications and Recommended Dosage of Cocamide DEA 6501


  • Personal care and daily cleansing: Shampoo and compatible liquid cleansing systems.

  • Home care: Laundry liquid, household detergent and other daily cleaning formulations.

  • Industrial cleaning: Metal cleaning agents requiring wetting, cleaning, thickening or foam stabilization.

  • Textile and fiber processing: Chemical-fiber oils and textile auxiliaries.


Recommended Dosage: 1-5%


How to Select and Purchase Cocamide DEA 6501

Two 6501 Grades for Different Specification Requirements: Transfar provides 1:1 and 1:1.5 grades. The 1:1 grade has higher minimum amide content and a lower maximum amine value, while the 1:1.5 grade has a different amide and amine-value range. Select the grade according to the target specification and confirm performance in the complete formula.


Functional Nonionic Surfactant: Within Transfar's alkanolamide portfolio, Cocamide DEA 6501 supports wetting, thickening, cleaning and foam stabilization and is compatible with anionic and nonionic surfactants.


6501 vs Alternative Alkanolamides: For a solid or pearlescent formulation option, compare cocamide mea surfactant. For formulations evaluating another liquid alkanolamide with a different thickening profile, compare methyl mea grades such as CMMEA. Final selection should consider physical form, solubility, viscosity response, foam, processing temperature and destination-market requirements.


Bulk Purchasing Information: Confirm the required 1:1 or 1:1.5 grade, quantity, packaging, MOQ, sample availability, lead time and destination market before ordering. Request the current TDS, SDS and batch COA for technical review. Where market-specific impurity or regulatory documentation is required, obtain a confirmed specification from Transfar before making compliance claims.


CTA: Send your target application, required grade, annual demand, destination market and packaging preference to receive a Cocamide DEA 6501 quotation, sample arrangement and technical document package.
