Description

Barium (Z)-Hexadec-9-Enoate is a metallic soap derived from the unsaturated fatty acid, (Z)-hexadec-9-enoic acid (palmitoleic acid). This compound is valued for its role as a versatile intermediate and functional additive in specialized chemical synthesis and material formulation. It is primarily utilized by manufacturers in the polymer, lubricant, and specialty chemical industries seeking to modify rheological properties or introduce specific metallic cations into their systems.

Application

• Polymer Stabilizer and Catalyst Component: Acts as a heat stabilizer and co-stabilizer in PVC and other halogenated polymer formulations.
• Grease and Lubricant Thickener: Serves as a soap-based thickener in the production of high-temperature and multi-purpose lubricating greases.
• Chemical Synthesis Intermediate: Used as a precursor or transmetallation agent in organic and organometallic synthesis.
• Waterproofing and Drying Agent: Functions as a water-repellent additive and drying agent in coatings, paints, and sealants.
• Viscosity Modifier: Employed to control and modify the rheological properties of various industrial fluids and gels.

Quality Control

Our Barium (Z)-Hexadec-9-Enoate is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure consistent purity, identity, and performance. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing specific batch results are available upon request to support your quality assurance and regulatory compliance needs.

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). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture.
