alcohols C8-18 and C18-unsaturated - Introduction
Alcohols, C8-18 and C18-unsatd are a class of alcohol compounds with carbon chain lengths between C8-18 and. The following is a description of the properties, use, preparation and safety information of these compounds:
Nature:
-Appearance: Usually a colorless and transparent liquid, or a white solid.
-Solubility: These alcohols are soluble in water, but as the carbon chain length increases, their solubility decreases.
-Density: The density of these alcohols is low, about 0.7-0.8 g/mL.
-Melting point and boiling point: The melting point and boiling point of these compounds increase with the growth of the carbon chain.
Use:
-Surfactants: These alcohols can be used as surfactants in the manufacture of detergents, emulsifiers and shampoos.
-Lubricants: Due to their lubricating properties, these alcohols can also be used as lubricants, suitable for various industrial and metallurgical applications.
-Cosmetics and Personal Care Products: These alcohols are commonly used as solvents, emulsifiers and thickeners in cosmetics and skin care products.
Preparation Method:
-The preparation method of this kind of alcohol is usually through the reaction of fatty acid with sodium hydroxide or other alkali to obtain the corresponding fatty acid salt, and then through the acidification reaction to obtain the fatty acid, and finally through the reduction reaction to obtain the corresponding alcohol.
Safety Information:
-These alcohols are generally considered to be relatively safe compounds, but the following matters should be paid attention to during use and operation:
-Avoid contact with eyes, skin and respiratory tract to avoid irritation or injury.
-In use to take good ventilation measures to prevent the vapor concentration is too high.
-Avoid contact with strong oxidants to avoid fire or explosion.
-Store away from fire and heat sources to prevent volatilization, combustion or explosion.
-Comply with the relevant regulations and safety guidelines for the use of the compound.
