Application

Dodecylamine (DDA) can be used:
  • As a modifier in the preparation of dodecylamine incorporated sodium montmorillonite. It is used as an adsorbent for hexavalent chromium.
  • In the synthesis of DDA-poly(aspartic acid) as a biodegradable water-soluble polymeric material.
  • As an organic surfactant in the synthesis of Sn(IV)-containing layered double hydroxide (LDHs), which can be further used as ion exchangers, absorbents, ion conductors, and catalysts.
  • As a complexing, reducing and capping agent in the synthesis of pentagonal silver nanowires.

A wormhole-like mesostructured silica was synthesized and modified with octadecylsilane (C18) groups. The resulting hybrid material (HMS-C18) was characterized and evaluated as sorbent for simultaneous extraction of 20 polyphenols from mixed fruit-vegetable juices and smoothies by dispersive solid-phase extraction (dSPE).
