1-(Ethenyloxy)hexadecane

Ref. 3D-AAA82228

Product Information

• Name: 1-(Ethenyloxy)hexadecane
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 1-(Ethenyloxy)hexadecane is a vinyl polymer that has a linear chain structure. It has an ethylene backbone and an ester side-chain with an alcohol group on one end. 1-(Ethenyloxy)hexadecane is fluorescent and can be used as a fluorescence probe for the detection of cationic surfactants in polymers. The polymer film formed from this monomer exhibits high resistance to solvents and temperature, making it suitable for use as a film-forming polymer. 1-(Ethenyloxy)hexadecane also contains fatty acid groups, which are important for its molecular stability.
