You would like to carry out an analysis of organic additives: Behenamide (CAS: 3061-75-4)
In what context should the Behenamide (CAS: 3061-75-4) assay be performed?
Behenamide, also known as docosanamide, is a functional organic additive used as a slippery agent, release agent, or surface lubricant in several industrial materials, particularly polymers. Its presence and concentration directly influence the physical and functional properties of finished products.
The analysis and quantification of behenamide address several industrial challenges:
The concentration of Behenamide influences the sliding, anti-blocking and surface properties of polymers (PE, PP, PVC, PA films, etc.).
Confirm that the additive is present in the expected or necessary quantity to achieve the intended performance.
Certain applications (e.g., food contact materials or technical packaging) may require specific thresholds or specifications.
What is Behenamide (CAS No. 3061-75-4)?
Le Behenamide est un amide gras à longue chaîne (docosanamide) utilisé comme agent glissant, anti-bloquant et lubrifiant interne dans les matériaux plastiques et les formulations industrielles. Il est apprécié pour sa stabilité thermique élevée et sa compatibilité avec de nombreuses résines et polymères (BOPP, LLDPE, PVC, PA6/PA66, EVA, etc.).

FAQ
Behenamide, also known as docosanamide, is an organic compound belonging to the fatty acid amide family. It is primarily used as a functional additive for its sliding, anti-blocking, and lubricating properties, particularly in polymer materials and certain industrial formulations.
Dosage testing allows you to:
- verify the conformity of a formulation,
- control the actual additive content in a material or finished product,
- explain variations in performance (slip, adhesion, touch, surface),
- ensure the safety of an industrial process or customer specifications,
- meet quality or regulatory requirements.
In the vast majority of cases, yes.
Behenamide is intentionally added to give the product a specific function.
However, it can also be detected as:
- a process residue,
- a trace element from a raw material,
- a migrating compound or a controlled contaminant.
The analytical context therefore determines its status (claimed additive or existing compound).
Behenamide dosage is particularly relevant to:
- plastics and polymers (films, compounds, technical parts),
- flexible packaging and technical films,
- inks, paints and coatings,
- certain cosmetic formulations,
- more broadly, formulated industries.
Behenamide can be quantified in a variety of matrices, for example:
- solid polymers or plastic films,
- liquid or semi-solid formulations,
- inks, varnishes, coatings,
- complex multi-component products.
The method is adapted according to the complexity of the matrix and the interfering substances present.
Yes. The methods used allow for the quantification of Behenamide:
- at low concentrations,
- in complex matrices,
- with good repeatability and analytical traceability.
Yes. Behenamide can be dosed:
- on raw materials,
- manufacturing intermediates,
- or directly on finished products (films, parts, formulations).
Yes. It is possible to:
- develop a customized method,
- adapt sample preparation,
- validate a method according to your industrial or regulatory constraints.
