Surfactants are surface active molecules characterized by a polar headgroup linked to a long hydrocarbon chain. According to the nature of their headgroup, surfactants are classified as nonionic, anionic, cationic, or zwitterionic. The amphiphilic nature of surfactants is the basis of their characteristic properties, such as the ability to adsorb at interfaces, lower the surface tension of water or spontaneously self-assembly in aqueous systems forming micelles once the critical micelle concentration (CMC) is reached.
Surfactants are widely used as wetting agents, detergents, emulsifiers, and softeners in a wide range of industries.
Amino acid surfactants (AAS) are biocompatible and biodegradable surfactants obtained by condensation of natural amino acids with fatty acids (or their derivatives) of oleochemical source. Hydrolysis of triglycerides from animal fat or vegetable oils furnishes a wide variety of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids with straight hydrocarbon chains and an even number of carbon atoms due to their biosynthetic route. The use of non-edible waste cooking oils is also a viable alternative, and further contributes to reduce the environmental burden.
Moreover, AAS can be produced in large scale by green chemistry approaches, including enzyme-catalyzed synthesis using immobilized lipases and proteases, although chemical processes still prevail due to high yields and low production costs. Being specialty surfactants, AAS still represent a low market share, but the trend toward green surfactants entirely produced from natural renewable sources by environmentally friendly technologies can change this scenario. Under the trend of increasingly focusing on green and environmental protection, we expect that AAS will have a very broad market space in the future.
