Tracking categories (test):

2-Octanol or Octan-2-ol (abbreviated 2-OH) is a branched 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, etc. 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. 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

As such, 2-Octanol is mainly used as:

  • Flavor [3]
  • low-volatility solvent : Diverses Resins (Paints & Coatings, Adhesives, Inks, etc.), Agrochemicals, Mineral Extraction, etc… [8][4]
  • Defoaming agent : Pulp & Paper, Oil & Gas, Cement, Coatings, Coal, etc.
  • a frother in mineral flotation[2]
  • 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.),
  • Plasticizers (acrylates, maleates, etc.),
  • Pesticides: Dinocap
  • Lubricants: Dialkyldithiophosphate de zinc (ZDDP)
  • Fragrances (salicylate)
