QUICK LINKS

2-Octyl-1-dodecanol is a long-chain alcohol that functions as a surfactant and emulsifier in experimental applications. It has the ability to reduce the surface tension of liquids, allowing for improved dispersion and stabilization of immiscible substances. 2-Octyl-1-Dodecanol interacts with molecules at the interface between two phases, facilitating the formation of stable emulsions and enhancing the solubility of hydrophobic compounds in aqueous solutions. Its mechanism of action involves the adsorption of the alcohol molecules at the interface, leading to a reduction in interfacial tension and the formation of a stable film. This enables the emulsification of oil-in-water or water-in-oil systems, which may be useful for creating stable emulsions in various experimental applications. 2-Octyl-1-dodecanol can also act as a wetting agent, improving the spreading and adhesion of liquids on solid surfaces.
