Dodecyl Phenol

EINECS number 203-202-9

///

CAS number 104-43-8

Dodecylphenol, or para dodecylphenol also known as 1-dodecyl-4-nonylphenol or simply DDP, is a chemical compound belonging to the family of alkylphenols. It is characterized by having a dodecyl (12-carbon) hydrocarbon chain attached to a phenolic ring. This chemical structure gives dodecylphenol unique properties and applications in various industries. It is an alkylphenol.

Dodecylphenol is commonly used as an intermediate chemical in the synthesis of surfactants and emulsifiers. Surfactants are compounds that lower the surface tension of liquids, allowing them to spread more easily, while emulsifiers help mix substances that do not normally blend, such as oil and water. These applications are found in various products, including detergents, industrial cleaners, and certain agricultural chemicals.

It’s important to note that there are concerns about the environmental and health impacts of some alkylphenols, including dodecylphenol, due to their potential endocrine-disrupting properties. As a result, there have been regulatory restrictions and efforts to find alternative compounds in some applications.

LA0 Linear Alpha 0lefin

Linear alpha olefins, often abbreviated as LAOs, are a type of chemical compound belonging to the family of alpha-olefins. Alpha-olefins are a class of organic compounds with a double bond (alkene) at the alpha position, which means the double bond is located at the beginning of the carbon chain.

Linear alpha olefins are characterized by having a linear, straight-chain structure. They have the general chemical formula CnH2n, where “n” represents the number of carbon atoms in the chain. They are typically produced through the oligomerization of ethylene, a process that links together multiple ethylene molecules to form longer carbon chains.

Methyl isobutyl carbinol (MIBC) is a clear, colorless liquid with a mild, sweet odor. It is a type of alcohol that is primarily used as a frother in mineral flotation processes.

MIBC is commonly used in the mining industry as a frother to help separate valuable minerals from unwanted minerals. During the flotation process, MIBC is added to the mineral slurry to create a froth that rises to the top, allowing the desired minerals to be separated from the unwanted minerals. MIBC is particularly effective in frothing sulfide ores, such as copper, lead, and zinc.

MIBC is also used as a solvent in the production of perfumes, paints, and other chemical products. It is a relatively non-toxic and non-corrosive compound, making it a useful alternative to other solvents that may be more harmful or damaging.

However, like all chemicals, MIBC can pose health risks if not handled properly. It is important to follow proper safety procedures, including wearing appropriate protective equipment and ensuring proper ventilation, when working with MIBC or any other chemical.

Pentamer

EINECS number 297-797-2

///

CAS number 93762-80-2

Pentamer is a branched olefin produced by the polymerization of propylene. Pentamer is also referred to as propylene pentamer. It is preferred name for branched C15 olefin.

Pentamer is used for solvent applications and or carrier fluids (e.g. drilling fluids) and as a supplement or replacement for tetramer. Other applications are the production of alkylphenols, alkenylsucinnic anhydride, mercaptans, alcohols and for alkylation of benzene. Pentamer can be used as a synthetic base oil, a refrigeration fluid and as an intermediate for further reaction (e.g. sulphonation).

Propylene Trimer Nonene

EINECS number 307-301-9

///

CAS number 97593-01-6

Propylene Trimer, also known as Nonene, is a chemical compound derived from the polymerization of propylene. It has a chemical formula of C9H18 and is characterized by a molecular structure with nine carbon atoms. Nonene is typically produced through the process of oligomerization of propylene, resulting in the formation of larger molecules.
