Description

Eicosene,Branchedandlinear CAS NO 114553-50-3 is a high-purity C20 α-olefin blend, characterized by a mixture of branched and linear isomers. This product matters for its role as a versatile chemical intermediate, offering a balance of reactivity and processability for advanced synthesis. Industries requiring specialty surfactants, lubricant additives, and polymer modifiers will find this material essential for developing high-performance formulations.

Application

• Intermediate for the synthesis of high-performance lubricant additives (e.g., polyalphaolefin - PAO - base stocks).
• Key building block in the production of specialty surfactants and emulsifiers for industrial and oilfield applications.
• Co-monomer for modifying polyethylene and other polyolefins to enhance specific material properties.
• Raw material for manufacturing fatty alcohols and derivatives used in personal care and detergent industries.
• Intermediate in organic synthesis for fine chemicals and pharmaceuticals.
• Component in the formulation of corrosion inhibitors and fuel additives.

Quality Control

Our Eicosene,Branchedandlinear is produced under a stringent quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including gas chromatography (GC) for isomer distribution and purity, to ensure it meets precise customer specifications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting key parameters such as assay, bromine number, and moisture content are available upon request, providing full traceability and compliance assurance.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area away from heat, sparks, and open flame. Due to its easily oxidized nature, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) for long-term preservation. Keep container tightly sealed when not in use to minimize exposure to air.
