The Product Description

GUERBET C16 alcohol is an isomer with two alkyl groups of 100% linear alkyl. The product has a network structure, and the freezing point of C16 is lower than that of straight chain alcohols with the same molecular weight, Because it is a saturated primary alcohol, its stability in oxidation, hydrolysis and color is better than that of unsaturated alcohols with similar carbon chains.

GUERBET C16 has the characteristics of light color, low odor, low volatility, strong solubility of additives, etc.

GUERBET C16 can be used as a lubricant modifier and coupling agent in metalworking fluids and processing oils to improve the low temperature fluidity and high temperature stability of products, helps emulsify and increase lubricity.

GUERBET C16 can be used in trace amounts of lubricating oil, grinding oil, and other processing oils to improve lubrication performance and oxidation stability, as well as reduce residue formation;

GUERBET C16 can be used as an emollient, emulsifier, dispersant, and cosolvent in cosmetics, as a foam inhibiting wetting agent in the textile industry, and as a defoamer component in cleaning agents.
