henicosanol - Introduction
Heneicosyl Alcohol(Heneicosyl Alcohol) is a fatty Alcohol with the chemical formula C21H44O and a molecular weight of 312.58g/mol. It is a colorless or yellowish solid, practically insoluble in water, but soluble in organic solvents such as ethers and alcohols.
In terms of properties, Heneicosyl Alcohol has good lubricating properties, so it is widely used as a lubricant, foaming agent and surfactant. It can also be used as an ingredient in skin care and personal care products because it is mild and does not irritate the skin.
In terms of preparation method, Heneicosyl Alcohol can be prepared by hydrogenation reaction of natural oils and fats, or synthesized by synthetic methods such as Glivus reaction (Grognard reaction).
Regarding safety information, Heneicosyl Alcohol is generally non-toxic to the human body, low irritation, and is not easily absorbed. However, as a chemical, certain safety measures need to be taken. During use, direct contact with skin and eyes should be avoided. If contact is not careful, rinse with plenty of water immediately and seek medical help. At the same time, avoid contact with fire sources during storage and use, and maintain a well-ventilated working environment. Depending on the specific use, the relevant safety data sheets and operating instructions should also be consulted.
