2-Octanol (octan-2-ol, 2-OH) is a fatty alcohol. It is a secondary eight-carbon chiral compound. 2-Octanol is a colorless liquid that is poorly soluble in water but soluble in most organic solvents.
It is used such as or as a raw material in various applications: flavors and fragrances, paints and coatings, inks, adhesives, home care, lubricants and fuels. 2-Octanol can be a biobased alternative of 2-ethylhexanol and its derivates in numerous applications.
Manufacturing
2-Octanol is produced from castor oil through a cracking process. It is created as a by-product of sebacic acid manufacturing.[8] Nowadays, India and China are the key producing countries of castor oil. Consequently, the majority of 2-Octanol production comes from these two countries: China & India.
Uses
2-Octanol is mainly used as:
- Flavor[7][9][10][11]
- low-volatility solvent : Diverses Resins (Paints & Coatings, Adhesives, Inks, etc.), Agrochemicals, Mineral Extraction, etc.… [12][13][14][15]
- Defoaming agent : Pulp & Paper, Oil & Gas, Cement, Coatings, Coal, etc.
- a frother in mineral flotation[16]
- wetting agent
It can also be used as a chemical intermediate for production of various other chemicals:
- Surfactants (ethoxylates, sulfates, ether sulfates, etc.),
- Cosmetic emollients esters (palmitate, adipate, maleate, stearate, myristate, etc.),[17]
- Plasticizers (acrylates, maleates, etc.),
- Pesticides: Dinocap [18][19]
- Lubricants: Zinc dithiophosphate (ZDDP)
- Fragrances (salicylate)
