N,N'-Ethylenebisstearamide (mixture of fatty acid amides) (consists of C14, C16 and C18)
N,N′-Ethylenebis(stearamide) (EBS) is a synthetic wax that has fatty amide groups that can interact with the surface of a variety of nanoparticles. It can be used for a wide range of applications such as lubricants, activators and dispersing agents that reduce the friction in the system and increase the rate of processing.
