Hexadecyltrimethylammonium chloride (CAS 112-02-7)
QUICK LINKS
Hexadecyltrimethylammonium chloride, referred to as CTAC, is a cationic surfactant widely used in the field of chemistry for various applications. It is extensively researched for its ability to form micelles in solution, which is fundamental in the study of colloidal and surface chemistry. This property is particularly useful for understanding the mechanisms of solubilization and emulsification processes. In materials science, Hexadecyltrimethylammonium chloride is employed to synthesize mesoporous materials and to control the morphology of nanostructured substances due to its phase-transfer catalysis capabilities. Additionally, it serves as a template molecule in the formation of various types of nanostructures. Its role in the stabilization and modification of nanoparticles is also a subject of investigation, with implications for the development of novel materials with specific optical, electronic, or catalytic properties.
