Dodecylphenol, mixed isomers (branched) - Introduction
Phenol, dodecyl-, branched (also known as nonionic surfactant) is a chemical substance with the following properties and applications:
Nature:
1. Appearance: It is a colorless or light yellow liquid with a special bitter taste.
2. Solubility: It is soluble in organic solvents, such as esters and aromatic hydrocarbons, but difficult to dissolve in water.
3. Surface tension: Phenol, dodecyl-, branched is a surfactant, so it has the ability to reduce the surface tension of the liquid. This makes it very useful in many applications.
Application:
1. Cleaner: Phenol, dodecyl-, branched is often used in various cleaning products, such as washing powder, detergent and hand sanitizer, because it can effectively remove dirt.
2. Emulsifier: It can also be used as an emulsifier to emulsify the mixture between oil and water, such as emulsifying lubricating oil and emulsifier drugs.
3. Cosmetics: It is also widely used in cosmetics and personal care products, such as shampoo, shower gel and facial cleanser.
Preparation Method:
Phenol, dodecyl-, branched can be prepared from dodecylbenzene through alkylation reaction. The common method is to use alkyl halide to react with benzene, and then reduce and alkylate.
Safety Information:
1. Phenol, dodecyl-, branched has low toxicity, but it is still necessary to pay attention to the safety of use.
2. Avoid contact with eyes and skin, if accidentally contact, should immediately rinse with plenty of water.
3. Avoid inhalation of its vapor or spray, if accidentally inhaled, should be quickly transferred to the ventilation.
4. During use, it is recommended to wear appropriate personal protective equipment, such as gloves and goggles.
5. When storing, keep it in a sealed container, away from fire and oxidizing agents.
Please note that the above information provides general descriptions and suggestions, and specific use and disposal will be determined according to the specific product and situation, it is therefore advisable to consult the relevant safety data sheets and application guidelines before use.
