General description
Hexacosane is one of the important component of the essential oil of Moringa oleifera (Moringaceae).
Application
Hexacosane can be used:
- To prepare sulfonated hexacosanes, which are used as phase-change materials in the latent heat thermal energy storage process.
- As a model n-alkane to study the solid-liquid equilibrium of binary mixtures in N,N-dimethylacetamide and N,N-dimethylformamide.

Cuticular hydrocarbons (CHCs) are important, multi-function components of the insect epicuticle. In Drosophila spp., CHCs provide protection from desiccation and serve as semiochemicals for both intra- and interspecific communication. We developed a non-lethal method for the modification of Drosophila CHCs
