Description

cis-13-Docosenol is a high-purity, long-chain monounsaturated fatty alcohol, also known as erucic alcohol. This compound serves as a versatile and valuable intermediate in the synthesis of specialty chemicals, offering excellent lubricity and emollient properties. It is primarily utilized in the production of surfactants, lubricant additives, plasticizers, and personal care formulations for industries such as cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and specialty manufacturing.

Application

• Surfactant & Emulsifier Synthesis: A key raw material for producing non-ionic surfactants and emulsifiers used in industrial and cosmetic applications.
• Lubricant & Metalworking Fluids: Imparts lubricity and anti-wear properties as an additive in synthetic lubricants and metalworking formulations.
• Personal Care & Cosmetics: Acts as an emollient and thickening agent in creams, lotions, and hair care products for its smooth, non-greasy feel.
• Pharmaceutical Intermediates: Used in the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and excipients.
• Plasticizer Production: Serves as a precursor for plasticizers that enhance the flexibility of polymers and plastics.
• Research & Development: A standard or building block in organic synthesis and chemical research within academic and industrial laboratories.
• Textile & Fiber Processing: Employed as a softening agent and lubricant in fiber manufacturing and textile processing.
