:Hexanoic acid, 3,5,5-trimethyl-, potassium salt (1:1)
Description:
Hexanoic acid, 3,5,5-trimethyl-, potassium salt (1:1), also known by its CAS number 93918-10-6, is a potassium salt derived from 3,5,5-trimethylhexanoic acid. This compound typically exhibits characteristics common to fatty acid salts, such as being a white to off-white solid or powder. It is soluble in water due to the presence of the potassium ion, which enhances its hydrophilicity compared to its parent acid. The presence of the trimethyl groups contributes to its branched structure, which can influence its physical properties, such as melting point and volatility. Hexanoic acid derivatives are often used in various applications, including as surfactants, emulsifiers, and in the formulation of personal care products. Additionally, the potassium salt form may impart specific functional properties, making it useful in agricultural or industrial applications. As with many organic salts, it is important to handle this compound with care, observing appropriate safety protocols to mitigate any potential hazards associated with its use.
