What is NYLON 12?

The Uses of NYLON 12

nylon 12 is a bulking and opacifying agent that provides good feel and good elasticity to moisturizers and makeup preparations, including foundations. nylon 12 reduces oiliness. It is a polyamide derivative of acid 12-aminododecanioic.

Preparation

Nylon 12 is produced by heating dodecyl lactam at about 300°C in the presence of aqueous phosphoric acid. The polymerization of dodecyllactam does not involve an equilibrium reaction (unlike the polymerization of caprolactam) and hence an almost quantitative yield of polymer is obtained and the removal of low molecular weight material is unnecessary.

Definition

ChEBI: Laurolactam is an azamacrocycle and a keratan 6'-sulfate.
