| Application: | 1-Hexanol is used: • As an oil phase in the preparation of manganese zinc ferrite nanoparticles by precipitation in reverse microemulsion system. • As a solvent in the separation of carboxylic acids and tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol from water. • As a solvent in the synthesis of ZnO (zinc oxide) quantum particles from zinc acetate by precipitation method. |
| Features and Benefits: | 1-Hexanol or Hexyl alcohol exhibits high reactivity at a lower temperature due to the alkane-like reaction pathways that begin at a secondary carbon site. |
| General description: | 1-Hexanol is a linear primary alcohol, made up of six carbon atoms and is produced by the oligomerization of ethylene. There is a wide range of uses for 1-hexanol, including plasticizers, antiseptics, fragrances, pharmaceuticals, textiles, and leather finishing agents. |
