Octadecanoic acid, also known as caprylic acid or aliphatic acid. It is a colorless or yellowish crystalline solid.
Octadecanedioic acid is an organic compound with two carboxylic (-COOH) functional groups, it is a diacid, acidic. It is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol, ether and benzene, but almost insoluble in water.
In addition to its physical properties, octadecanoic acid also has a number of chemical properties. It can react with amines to form the corresponding aliphatic diamides, such as octanediamide (C18H36CONH2). It can also react with alcohols to form corresponding aliphatic esters, such as octyl caprylate (C18H36O2 + C8H18O → C18H36O2C8H18 + H2O).
It can also be used to synthesize other compounds, such as polyesters, polyamides and dye intermediates.
Application: Octadecylic acid is an important chemical raw material, belonging to a type of long-chain dicarboxylic acid. Long chain dicarboxylic acids have a wide range of uses, and can be used as raw materials to synthesize special nylon, high-end spices, high-end hot melt adhesives, cold resistant plasticizers, advanced lubricants, advanced rust inhibitors, advanced paints and coatings, etc.
Polyester resin synthesis: Octadecanedioic acid is widely used as one of the raw materials for polyester resin. It can react with alcohols such as ethylene glycol to form polyester, which is used to make coatings, plastics, fibers and synthetic fibers.
Dye synthesis: In the field of dyes, octadecanedioic acid can be used as an intermediate for the synthesis of organic pigments and dyes.
