Description

Elaidic Acid Butyl Ester is a high-purity ester derivative of elaidic acid, a trans-isomer of oleic acid. This compound serves as a valuable chemical intermediate and functional additive in advanced material synthesis and formulation. It is primarily utilized by manufacturers in the polymer, lubricant, and specialty chemical industries seeking to modify material properties such as plasticity, viscosity, and surface activity.

Application

• Polymer Plasticizer and Modifier: Used to enhance flexibility and processing characteristics of PVC and other polymeric materials.
• Lubricant and Grease Formulation: Acts as a synthetic base oil or additive to improve lubricity and thermal stability.
• Chemical Intermediate: Serves as a key building block in organic synthesis for pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and fine chemicals.
• Surface Coating Additive: Imparts leveling and flow properties to paints, inks, and coatings.
• Research & Development: Employed as a standard or reagent in analytical chemistry and biochemical studies.
• Personal Care Ingredients: Functions as an emollient or texture enhancer in cosmetic formulations.
