Description

1,2-Triacontanediol is a high-purity, long-chain aliphatic diol with the CAS number 66063-40-9, valued for its unique combination of hydrophobic and hydrophilic properties. This specialty chemical serves as a crucial building block and performance additive in advanced material formulations. It is primarily sought after by manufacturers in the cosmetics, polymer, and specialty lubricant industries for its ability to modify surface properties and enhance product stability.

Application

• As a key emollient and viscosity modifier in high-end cosmetic and skincare formulations, such as creams and lotions.
• Functioning as a chain extender or cross-linking agent in the synthesis of specialty polyurethanes and polyesters.
• Utilized as a raw material for producing non-ionic surfactants and emulsifiers with specific HLB values.
• Acting as a lubricity additive and friction modifier in synthetic lubricants and greases.
• Employed in the creation of release agents and mold lubricants for plastic and rubber processing.
• Serving as a precursor for wax esters used in coatings and polishes to impart water repellency and shine.
• Potential use as a crystal growth modifier or habit modifier in certain industrial crystallization processes.

Quality Control

Our 1,2-Triacontanediol is produced under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including assay by GC or HPLC, identification by FT-IR, and determination of key physical parameters like melting point and acid value. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) documenting purity, identity, and conformity to agreed specifications is provided with every shipment to ensure traceability and reliability for your B2B applications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). This product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can affect product quality and handling properties.
