Description

n-Undecyl Ether is a high-purity, long-chain aliphatic ether with the CAS registry number 43146-97-0. This compound serves as a versatile intermediate and functional fluid, valued for its hydrophobic properties and chemical stability under controlled conditions. It is primarily utilized by manufacturers in the specialty chemical, lubricant, and pharmaceutical industries for applications requiring non-polar solvents or hydrophobic building blocks.

Application

• As a high-boiling point solvent and reaction medium for organic synthesis and polymerization processes.
• As a hydrophobic intermediate in the production of surfactants, plasticizers, and lubricant additives.
• As a non-polar carrier fluid in specialty formulations for coatings, inks, and adhesives.
• In the development of phase-transfer catalysts and extraction agents for chemical separation processes.
• As a base fluid or viscosity modifier in high-performance synthetic lubricants and greases.
• For research and development in material science, particularly in creating hydrophobic surfaces and membranes.

Quality Control

Our n-Undecyl Ether is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including chromatography and spectroscopy, to ensure it meets precise chemical and physical specifications. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and key parameters is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and compliance with your technical requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area away from heat and ignition sources. Due to its properties of being easily oxidized and highly volatile, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) and at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Keep container tightly sealed when not in use to minimize evaporation and prevent moisture ingress.
