Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A subject-matter of the invention are betaines with a special fatty acid chain distribution, for example based on palm kernel oil, the palm kernel oil comprising an enhanced content of unsaturated C 18 fatty acids.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. An aqueous solution comprising a fatty acid amidoalkyl betaine of formula I: wherein: n=1 to 10, and R 1 CO=mixture of acyl radicals of a palm kernel oil, wherein the mixture of the acyl radicals exhibits an oleic acid acyl radicals content, based on all acyl radicals of the mixture, of 13% by weight to 17% by weight; and wherein the aqueous solution comprises fatty acid amidoalkyl betaines in an amount of 15% by weight to 55% by weight. 2. The aqueous solution of claim 1 , wherein, in formula I, n=2 to 5. 3. The aqueous solution of claim 1 , wherein, in formula I, n=3. 4. The aqueous solution of claim 1 , wherein the mixture of acyl radicals exhibits an oleic acid acyl radicals content, based on all acyl radicals of the mixture, of 14% by weight to 15% by weight. 5. The aqueous solution of claim 1 , wherein, in formula I, n=3 and the mixture of the acyl radicals exhibits an oleic acid acyl radicals content, based on all acyl radicals of the mixture, of 14% by weight to 15% by weight. 6. The aqueous solution of claim 1 , wherein, the mixture of acyl radicals of the palm kernel oil exhibits a linoleic acid acyl radicals (C18:2) content, based on all acyl radicals of the mixture, of 1.5% by weight to 4% by weight. 7. The aqueous solution of claim 1 , wherein the mixture of acyl radicals of the palm kernel oil exhibits a linoleic acid acyl radicals (C18:2) content, based on all acyl radicals of the mixture, of 2% by weight to 3.5% by weight. 8. The aqueous solution of claim 1 , wherein the mixture of acyl radicals of the palm kernel oil exhibits a linoleic acid acyl radicals (C18:2) content, based on all acyl radicals of the mixture, of 2.5% by weight to 3% by weight. 9. The aqueous solution of claim 1 , wherein the mixture of acyl radicals of the palm kernel oil exhibits a content of linoleic acid acyl radicals, based on all acyl radicals of the mixture, of 2% by weight to 4% by weight. 10. The aqueous solution of claim 1 , wherein said aqueous solution comprises fatty acid amidoalkyl betaines in an amount of 21% by weight to 49% by weight. 11. The aqueous solution of claim 1 , wherein said aqueous solution comprises fatty acid amidoalkyl betaines in an amount of 31% by weight to 39% by weight. 12. The aqueous solution of claim 1 , wherein said aqueous solution exhibits a pH in a range from 3.6 to 7.9. 13. The aqueous solution of claim 1 , wherein said aqueous solution exhibits a pH in a range from 4.1 to 6.9. 14. The aqueous solution of claim 1 , wherein said aqueous solution comprises free fatty acids. 15. The aqueous solution of claim 1 , wherein said aqueous solution comprises glycerol. 16. The aqueous solution of claim 1 , wherein said aqueous solution comprises an additional surfactant. 17. An aqueous solution comprising a fatty acid amidoalkyl betaine of formula I: wherein: n=1 to 10, and R 1 CO=mixture of acyl radicals of a palm kernel oil, wherein the mixture of the acyl radicals exhibits an oleic acid acyl radicals content, based on all acyl radicals of the mixture, of 13% by weight to 17% by weight; and wherein, compared to an aqueous solution in which the mixture of the acyl radicals exhibits an oleic acid acyl radicals content, based on all acyl radicals of the mixture, of 11% by weight or lower, said aqueous solution exhibits faster foam development. 18. The aqueous solution of claim 17 , wherein, in formula I, n=2 to 5. 19. The aqueous solution of claim 18 , wherein, the mixture of acyl radicals of the palm kernel oil exhibits a linoleic acid acyl radicals (C18:2) content, based on all acyl radicals of the mixture, of 1.5% by weight to 4% by weight. 20. The aqueous solution of claim 19 , wherein said aqueous solution comprises fatty acid amidoalkyl betaines in an amount of 21% by weight to 49% by weight.
