"Palmitamine" refers to the amine of palmitic acid. The substance is used in cosmetic formulations. It acts as antistatic agent (reduces static charges by neutralizing the electric charge on the surface, e.g. of hair), surfactant (washing-active substance/improves the even distribution of the products during application), foaming agent (increases the foaming and improves volume, structure and durability of the foam), Solubilizer (is able to dissolve or dilute substances without causing chemical reactions between the dissolved substance and the dissolving substance), hair conditioner (makes the hair easy to comb, smooth, soft and shiny and gives it volume) and as a substance with a cleansing effect.
