Description

Fettsuren, C18-Ungesttigt, Dimerisiert, Hydriert, Methylester is a specialized methyl ester derived from the dimerization and subsequent hydrogenation of unsaturated C18 fatty acids. This chemical intermediate is valued for its enhanced stability and unique molecular structure, making it a versatile building block for high-performance formulations. It is primarily sought by manufacturers in the polymer, lubricant, and specialty chemical industries for applications requiring tailored rheological properties and oxidative resistance.

Application

• Polymer Additives & Plasticizers: Used as a reactive intermediate or co-monomer to modify the flexibility, durability, and processing characteristics of polymers and resins.
• High-Performance Lubricants & Greases: Serves as a base stock or additive to formulate synthetic lubricants with excellent thermal stability, low volatility, and high viscosity indices.
• Surfactants & Emulsifiers: Acts as a key raw material in the synthesis of specialty surfactants for industrial and institutional cleaning products.
• Corrosion Inhibitors: Employed in functional fluid formulations to provide protective film-forming properties on metal surfaces.
• Adhesives & Sealants: Functions as a tackifier or modifier to enhance adhesion, cohesion, and environmental resistance in adhesive systems.
• Cosmetic & Personal Care Ingredients: Used in the production of emollients and conditioning agents for skin and hair care formulations.
• Fuel & Oil Additives: Incorporated into additive packages to improve detergent/dispersant properties and combustion efficiency.
• Chemical Synthesis Intermediate: Provides a defined, saturated dimeric backbone for further chemical reactions, such as amidation or ethoxylation, to create novel specialty chemicals.

Quality Control

Our production of Fettsuren, C18-Ungesttigt, Dimerisiert, Hydriert, Methylester adheres to stringent quality management protocols. Every batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure consistency, purity, and compliance with agreed specifications. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing key parameters such as assay, acid value, iodine value, and color is provided with each shipment to guarantee traceability and quality assurance for our global B2B clients.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). This material is easily oxidized; for long-term storage, maintaining an inert atmosphere (e.g., under nitrogen) is recommended to preserve product integrity. Keep away from strong oxidizing agents, heat, and ignition sources.
