Abstract: A method for producing a tertiary amine composition that includes the following Steps (1) to (3); Step (1): an amination step of reacting an aliphatic alcohol or an aliphatic aldehyde having 8 or more and 36 or less carbon atoms with dimethylamine in the presence of a metal catalyst; Step (2): a distillation step of separating a reaction liquid obtained through the Step (1) by distillation into a distilled product containing a low-boiling-point compound and a concentrate; and Step (3): a centrifugation step of separating the concentrate obtained through the Step (2) by a centrifugal force into a precipitate and a liquid phase containing the tertiary amine composition.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for obtaining amidated fatty acids or derivatives thereof good in color even after longer storage with low concentrations of undesired by-products. The present invention also relates to use of amidated fatty acids or derivatives thereof obtained by the process in the cosmetic applications. Further, the present invention also relates to use of amidated fatty acids or derivatives thereof obtained by the process in the industrial applications.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a composition comprising at least an ether carboxylic acid. The present invention also relates to the method for obtaining of the composition and to the use of the composition in industrial applications such as engine oil compositions, metal working compositions, lubricant compositions and oil fuel compositions.

Abstract: The present invention relates to novel ionic liquids comprising polyethercarboxylate groups as anions, alkyl ammonium groups as cations, a process of preparation of said ionic liquids and its use in high duty lubricant.
