Thermo Scientific™ 1-Decanol ≥98%

Thermo Scientific™ 1-Decanol ≥98% is a high-purity primary fatty alcohol used as a laboratory reagent and intermediate in chemical synthesis. This long-chain aliphatic alcohol is widely used in organic synthesis, surfactant production, fragrance chemistry, and analytical research.

1-Decanol is a colourless liquid with a mild sweet odor and exhibits good solubility in organic solvents such as alcohols and ethers, while remaining insoluble in water. Due to its hydrophobic alkyl chain and reactive hydroxyl group, it is commonly used as a building block in the synthesis of esters, plasticizers, lubricants, and surface-active agents.

Thermo Scientific provides this reagent with ≥98% purity, ensuring consistent quality and performance for research laboratories, chemical manufacturing processes, and analytical applications.
