2,3-Bis(octadecyloxy)-1-propanol

Description:

2,3-Bis(octadecyloxy)-1-propanol, with the CAS number 6076-38-6, is a chemical compound characterized by its long hydrocarbon chains, which contribute to its amphiphilic nature. This substance features two octadecyloxy groups attached to a propane backbone, making it a type of glycerol ether. Its structure imparts significant hydrophobic properties due to the lengthy alkyl chains, while the hydroxyl groups provide hydrophilicity, allowing it to interact with both polar and non-polar environments. This dual characteristic makes it useful in various applications, including as a surfactant, emulsifier, or stabilizer in formulations. Additionally, its long-chain structure can enhance the viscosity and stability of products, making it valuable in the cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries. The compound is typically solid at room temperature and may exhibit low solubility in water, but it can dissolve in organic solvents. Safety data should be consulted for handling and potential toxicity, as with any chemical substance.
