Main uses
1) In the pharmaceutical field (one of the core applications), it has a significant inhibitory effect on skin fungi and is a classic external antifungal raw material: Prepare ointments, solutions, and sprays for fungal infections such as athlete's foot (athlete's foot), tinea pedis, and tinea capitis; Can synthesize zinc undecylenate (a commonly used ingredient in compound fungal drugs).
2) Important long-chain unsaturated fatty acid spice intermediates for spice synthesis (maximum industrial use):Preparation of γ - undecanolactone (peach aldehyde) (the core flavor of honey peach essence);
Synthesis of cyclopentadecanolide, musk flavor, nonaldehyde, nonanol and other daily chemical essence raw materials.
3) Fine chemical raw materials
Production of surfactants and unsaturated polyester modified monomers;
Lubricant additives, plastic modification agents;
Organic synthesis intermediates.
4) Cosmetics/personal care products are added in compliance with regulations and used as antibacterial functional raw materials. 4、
Key points for safety and storage
Hazard: Irritating substances (Xi) that can irritate the skin and eyes; Harmful to aquatic organisms; Avoid contact with strong oxidants and strong alkalis; Double bonds are prone to oxidation and discoloration under long-term light exposure;Storage: Store in a cool and dark place, sealed and stored at room temperature; Not classified as bulk general cargo transportation of hazardous chemicals.
The mainstream industrial route for preparation is high-temperature cracking of castor oil methyl ester, which produces heptanal as a byproduct and is a renewable oil derived chemical.
