Application
- 1-Octadecanol is used in the synthesis of O-octadecyl-S-trifluorothiolcarbonate, which is a storable crystalline source of trifluoromethanethiol.[1]
- It can be used to improve solution processability of conjugated polymers used in the organic electronic applications.[2]
- It induces hydrophobicity to the amphiphiles used in the drug and gene delivery.[3][4]
- It is also employed in the synthesis of solid-liquid phase change materials (PCMs)[5][6], surfactant and stabilizers.[7]
