C8-10 alcohol

C8-10 Alcohol (CAS 85566-12-7 ) is a blend of straight-chain fatty alcohols covering the C8 and C10 carbon range, with Decyl Alcohol as the predominant commercially recognized component. It functions as a solvent, emulsifier, and foam control agent across personal care, cleaning, and industrial formulations. In personal care, it acts as a carrier and emollient base in skin creams. It is used in lotions and hair care products, improving spreadability and texture without contributing to foam. Household and industrial cleaning formulations use it to control unwanted foam. It works well in surfactant-heavy systems while maintaining cleaning performance. As a plasticizer intermediate and polymer processing aid, it supports the production of plasticates and specialty coatings. It is ideal where controlled viscosity and compatibility are required. In metalworking and lubricant blending, it serves as a base fluid component and carrier for additive packages in cutting fluids. It is also utilized in rust-preventive formulations. C8-10 Alcohol is supplied as a clear to slightly hazy liquid, typically in drum and IBC quantities with bulk options available for high-volume buyers. Standard grades include technical and cosmetic/personal care quality, with the latter meeting relevant purity thresholds for use in regulated formulations. Buyers should confirm the C8:C10 ratio. Supplier blends vary and this directly affects performance in foam control and emulsification applications. This material is essential for manufacturers seeking reliable chemical intermediates.
