Technical Details & Test Data

Melting points of MultiTech Difunctional A alcohols in comparison with linear NACOL alcohols

The MultiTech Difunctional A to C24 are liquid at ambient temperature, whereas corresponding linear and saturated alcohols are solid. While oleyl alcohol starts to solidify at approx. 10 °C, MultiTech Difunctional A alcohol of similar chain lengths remains liquid
