If this product has an expiration or retest date, it will be shown on the Certificate of Analysis (COA, CofA). If there is no retest or expiration date listed on the product's COA, we do not have suitable stability data to determine a shelf life. For these products, the only date on the COA will be the release date; a retest, expiration, or use-by-date will not be displayed.
For all products, we recommend handling per defined conditions as printed in our product literature and website product descriptions. We recommend that products should be routinely inspected by customers to ensure they perform as expected.
For products without retest or expiration dates, our standard warranty of 1 year from the date of shipment is applicable.

Application
- Molecular Dynamics in Surfactant Research: Dong et al. conducted molecular dynamics simulations to study the effects of surfactants on methane and n-decane interactions. This research provides insights into the applications of n-decane in enhancing the performance of surfactants in oil recovery and environmental remediation processes (Dong et al., 2024).
- Interfacial Adsorption Studies: Ruwoldt et al. explored the interfacial adsorption properties of oil-soluble kraft lignin and its ability to stabilize water-in-oil emulsions, where n-decane plays a crucial role as a model hydrocarbon solvent, contributing to understanding emulsion stability and lignin-solvent interactions in industrial applications (Ruwoldt et al., 2024).
- Semiconductor Strain Gauges in Geotechnical Engineering: Mikhaltsevitch and Lebedev utilized semiconductor strain gauges to measure the effective stress coefficient for the elastic moduli of sandstone. N-decane could potentially be used as a fluid medium in these experiments to simulate natural hydrocarbon environments, enhancing the accuracy of geophysical assessments (Mikhaltsevitch et al., 2024).

How is shipping temperature determined? And how is it related to the product storage temperature?
1 answer-
Products may be shipped at a different temperature than the recommended long-term storage temperature. If the product quality is sensitive to short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped on wet or dry-ice. If the product quality is NOT affected by short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped at ambient temperature. As shipping routes are configured for minimum transit times, shipping at ambient temperature helps control shipping costs for our customers. For more information, please refer to the Storage and Transport Conditions document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/documents/316/622/storage-transport-conditions-mk.pdf
