CAS 506-42-3: Elaidyl alcohol
Description:Elaidyl alcohol, with the CAS number 506-42-3, is a fatty alcohol derived from elaidic acid, which is the trans isomer of oleic acid. This compound is characterized by its long hydrocarbon chain, typically consisting of 18 carbon atoms, and a hydroxyl (-OH) functional group. Elaidyl alcohol is a white, waxy solid at room temperature and is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents. It exhibits properties typical of fatty alcohols, such as being non-toxic and biodegradable, making it suitable for various applications in the cosmetic and personal care industries, particularly as an emollient and emulsifier. Additionally, it can be used in the formulation of surfactants and as a lubricant. The presence of the trans double bond in its structure influences its physical properties, such as melting point and stability. Overall, elaidyl alcohol is valued for its functional properties and versatility in industrial applications.
