:Methyl p-Hexadecyloxybenzoate
Description:
Methyl p-Hexadecyloxybenzoate, with the CAS number 40654-35-1, is an organic compound that belongs to the class of benzoates. It is characterized by its ester functional group, which is formed from the reaction of benzoic acid and a long-chain alcohol, in this case, hexadecanol. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid and is known for its hydrophobic properties due to the long hexadecyl chain, which enhances its solubility in organic solvents while making it less soluble in water. Methyl p-Hexadecyloxybenzoate is often utilized in various applications, including as an emulsifier, surfactant, or in cosmetic formulations, where it can contribute to skin conditioning and texture. Its molecular structure allows it to interact with both hydrophilic and hydrophobic substances, making it valuable in formulations that require stability and compatibility with diverse ingredients. Safety data should be consulted for handling and exposure guidelines, as with any chemical substance.
