50286-30-1 - Introduction
Tetradecenoic acid, chemical formula C14H26O2, also known as trans-9-tetradecenoic acid or myristic acid, is an unsaturated fatty acid. The following is a description of the nature, use, preparation and safety information of tetradecenoic acid:
Nature:
-tetradecenoic acid is a colorless or light yellow oily liquid.
-It has a melting point of 23-24 ° C and a boiling point of 322-332 ° C.
-Tetradecenoic acid is stable at room temperature and has good solubility and fluidity.
-its chemical properties are mainly acidic, can react with alkali to generate the corresponding salt.
Use:
-Tetradecenoic acid is widely used in cosmetics and personal care products as an emulsifier, thickener and lubricant.
-It is also used as a lubricating oil and additive in automobile engines, industrial equipment and machinery.
-tetradecenoic acid can also be used in paper coating, plastic products, paints and inks and other fields.
Preparation Method:
-tetradecenoic acid can be prepared by decarboxylation of cinnamic acid. Myristic acid (C14H28O2) can be produced by a deoxygenation dehydration reaction to tetradecenoic acid (C14H26O2), which usually exists in the trans configuration.
Safety Information:
-Tetradecenoic acid has low toxicity, but direct contact with skin and eyes should still be avoided.
-During use, it is recommended to wear appropriate protective equipment, such as gloves, glasses and breathing masks.
-During handling or storage, care should be taken to avoid contact with oxidants and flammable materials to prevent fire and explosion accidents.
-tetradecenoic acid should be stored in a cool, dry and well-ventilated place, away from fire and kindling.
Please note that when using and handling chemical substances, please follow the correct operating procedures, and refer to the specific safety data sheet and relevant regulations according to the actual situation.
