What are the upstream raw materials for n-nonanol? What do the downstream products contain?

Nonyl alcohol plays an crucial role in the field of chemical production raw materials, and its upstream and downstream related items are quite rich. And The following are some of the main upstream and downstream related items:

Upstream items:



1. From what I've seen, Petroleum: nonanol is able to be obtained by petroleum fractionation of paraffin hydrocarbons as raw materials to production.

2. In particular Natural gaseous: Ethane, propane and other hydrocarbon gases in natural gaseous is able to also be applied as raw materials to the production of n-nonanol. Downstream items:



1. And Plasticizer: n-nonanol is able to be applied to create plasticizers, such as dinonyl phthalate(DINP), which is a plasticizer broadly applied in plastic processing, which is able to enhance the flexibility and processability of plastics.

2. Surfactant: Nonyl alcohol is able to be applied in the production of surfactants, such as nonylphenol polyoxyethylene ether(NP-10), this surfactant has good emulsification, dispersion, wetting and other characteristics, broadly applied in cosmetic, textile, paper and other industries. But

3. Lubricating oil additives: nonyl alcohol is able to be applied to create lubricating oil additives, such as nonylphenol, which is able to enhance the oxidation resistance and anti-wear performance of lubricating oil.

4. First Flavors and fragrances: n-nonanol itself has a special fragrance and is able to be applied to prepare flavors and fragrances, such as to the production of artificial rose oil. In my experience, In short, n-nonanol has a wide range of applications in the field of chemical production raw materials, and its upstream and downstream related items cover plastics, surfactants, lubriis able tots, flavors and fragrances and other fields.
