Description
Stearyl alcohol, min. 95 %, is a long-chain fatty alcohol for laboratory chemical use, identified by CAS number 112-92-5 and EG nr. 204-017-6. The empirical formula is C₁₈H₃₈O, with a molar mass of 270,50 g/mol. Physical properties include a density of 0,805 to 0,815 g/cm³, a flash point of 195 °C, and a boiling point of 335 °C, supporting predictable behaviour in melting, dissolution, and thermal processing steps. Laboratories working on surfactants, emollient systems, or organic synthesis intermediates can draw on this grade where a defined stearyl alcohol specification is needed. The product from manufacturer Carl ROTH arrives with clear identity and property data, simplifying documentation and risk assessment. balances economy with manageable handling for routine laboratory consumption, while the minimum 95 % assay provides a reliable baseline for reproducible experimental outcomes across chemical and materials research workflows.
