Description

Glycols, C15-18 is a defined mixture of long-chain, saturated glycols primarily derived from C15 to C18 fatty alcohols. This product serves as a versatile, high-performance intermediate and functional fluid, valued for its excellent lubricity, hydrophobicity, and chemical stability. It is essential for formulators and manufacturers in sectors requiring specialized non-ionic surfactants, synthetic lubricants, and plasticizers. The compound with CAS No. 92128-52-4 meets the demand for consistent, high-purity raw materials in advanced industrial applications.

Application

• As a key intermediate in the synthesis of high-molecular-weight, non-ionic surfactants and emulsifiers.
• As a base fluid or viscosity modifier in the formulation of synthetic lubricants and metalworking fluids.
• As a hydrophobic plasticizer and processing aid in polymer and resin systems.
• As a component in corrosion inhibitor formulations for industrial water treatment and fuel additives.
• In the production of textile auxiliaries, providing softening and anti-static properties.
• As a raw material for creating specialty esters used in cosmetics and personal care products.
• In the formulation of release agents and mold lubricants for the rubber and plastics industries.
