Sulfobetaine 12, SB 12(Detergent zwitterionic) S121 N-Dodecyl-N,N-dimethyl-3-ammonio-1-propanesulfonate, 99+%[ 14933-08-5 ] f.w.: 335.6 daltons |
A synthetic zwitterionic detergent, which unlike other amphoteric surfactants, retains its zwitterionic character over a broad pH range.
A synthetic zwitterionic detergent, which unlike other amphoteric surfactants, retains its zwitterionic character over a broad pH range. This property is attributed to the presence of both a strongly basic quaternary ammonium ion and an acidic sulfonate ion of equal strength. This ionic balance presumably prevents irreversible binding to either anionic or cationic compounds. Aggregation number: 55.
