Production
2-Octanol is produced commercially by base-cleavage of ricinoleic acid.[8] The coproduct is a mixture of sebacic acid ((C8H16CO2H)2). Castor oil, which consists mainly of triglycerides of ricinoleic acid, is the main feedstock.[9] [10]
Uses
2-Octanol is mainly used as:
- Flavor[7][11][12][13]
- low-volatility solvent : Diverses Resins (Paints & Coatings, Adhesives, Inks, etc.), Agrochemicals, Mineral Extraction, etc....[14][15][16][17]
- Defoaming agent : Pulp & Paper, Oil & Gas, Cement, Coatings, Coal, etc.
- a frother in mineral flotation[18]
- wetting agent
It can also be used as a chemical intermediate for production of various other chemicals:
- Surfactants (ethoxylates, sulfates, ether sulfates, etc.),
- Cosmetic emollients esters (palmitate, adipate, maleate, stearate, myristate, etc.),[19]
- Plasticizers (acrylates, maleates, etc.),
- Pesticides: Dinocap [20][21]
- Lubricants: Zinc dithiophosphate (ZDDP)
- Fragrances (salicylate)
- Used in the manufacturing of perfumes and disinfectant soaps[22]
- Used to prevent foaming and as a solvent for fats and waxes[22]
- Used to examine and control Essential Tremor and other types of involuntary neurological tremors[22]
