Oleic acid (Oleic acid), chemical formula is C18H34O2. It is easily soluble in organic solvents 、such as 、ethanol ether chloroform and insoluble in water. Flammable. It is easy when exposed to alkali to saponify , and after solidification, it forms a white soft solid. It is very easy to oxidize, polymerize or decompose under high heat. Non-toxic.
Oleic acid is an indispensable nutrient in animal food. Its lead salt, manganese salt and cobalt salt are paint
drying agents ; copper salt is a fishing net preservative; aluminum salt can be used as a fabric waterproofing agent and
a thickener for certain lubricants . Oleic acid can be epoxidized to produce epoxy oleate (
plasticizer ). is made through oxidation and cracking .
Azelaic acid (the raw material of polyamide resin)
The wool spinning industry is used to prepare antistatic agents and lubricating softeners. The wood industry is used to prepare water-resistant paraffin
emulsions . is prepared by oxidation
Azelaic acid , and can also be used as pesticide emulsifiers,
lubricants , printing and dyeing additives ,
industrial solvents , metal mineral flotation agents, mold release agents, and grease hydrolyzers. It is used to prepare copy paper, typed paper, ballpoint pen oil and various oleate salts. As a chemical reagent, used as a chromatographic comparison sample, and used for biochemical research, calcium, ammonia, copper, magnesium, sulfur, etc. are determined. Activate protein kinase in hepatocytes.
A 75% alcohol solution of oleic acid can be used as a rust remover.
