This study is to do with the synthesis of glycidyl succinate cationic gemini surfactant. The gemini surfactant was synthesized with using 2-methyl disodium succinate, epichlorohydrine and N,N-dimethyl dodecyl amine. The target material was confirmed by FT-IR, $^1H$-NMR and was tested their properties. Surface active properties such as surface tension, evaluated cmc, emulsing properties, foaming properties were measured respectively at given conditions. The surface tensions for the aqueous solution of gemini surfactant were 33~34 dyne/cm and their cmc values evaluated by surface tension method were $10^{-4}{\sim}10^{-3}mol/L$. Emulsing properties of gemini surfactant was better in organic solvent and foaming power was confirmed good stability.
