Hexacosane (CAS 630-01-3)
QUICK LINKS
Hexacosane is a long-chain alkane with a wide range of applications in material science and environmental research. As a hydrocarbon with a relatively simple structure, it is used to study the properties and behaviors of paraffinic compounds in various conditions. Researchers employ hexacosane to understand phase transitions, such as melting and crystallization processes, which are relevant for the development of new materials with specific thermal properties. In the field of environmental chemistry, hexacosane serves as a model compound for investigating the transport, degradation, and persistence of hydrocarbons in soils and sediments. It is also used in the calibration of analytical instruments due to its defined and reproducible thermal properties. Moreover, hexacosane is of interest in the study of waxes, natural coatings, and the waterproofing of plants and insects, providing insights into biological adaptations to water conservation and temperature regulation.
