Description

Isononyl Mercaptoacetate CAS NO 84051-96-7 is a specialized organic sulfur compound, specifically an ester of mercaptoacetic acid and isononyl alcohol. This chemical is valued for its role as a versatile intermediate and additive, particularly in polymer and materials science applications. It is primarily needed by manufacturers in the plastics, rubber, and specialty chemical industries for applications such as polymer modification and stabilization.

Application

• Polymer Modification Agent: Used as a chain transfer agent (CTA) or modifier in the production of polymers like PVC, acrylics, and styrenics to control molecular weight and improve processability.
• Stabilizer Intermediate: Serves as a key building block in the synthesis of organotin and other metal-based heat stabilizers for PVC and other halogenated polymers.
• Lubricant and Grease Additive: Employed as an extreme pressure (EP) additive and anti-wear agent in the formulation of advanced lubricants and industrial greases.
• Crosslinking Agent: Functions in the curing and crosslinking processes of certain elastomers and sealants to enhance thermal and mechanical properties.
• Chemical Synthesis Intermediate: Utilized in organic synthesis for introducing the thioester functional group into more complex molecules for pharmaceuticals or agrochemicals.
• Surface Treatment: Applied in coatings and surface treatments to improve adhesion and corrosion resistance on metal substrates.

Quality Control

Our Isononyl Mercaptoacetate is produced under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including assay (GC/HPLC), identity confirmation (IR), and impurity profiling, to ensure it meets precise customer specifications and industry standards. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and compliance.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from heat sources and incompatible materials such as strong oxidizing agents. Recommended storage temperature is between 15°C and 25°C. Due to its sensitivity to oxidation, it is advisable to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) for long-term preservation.
