Chemical properties
clear colorless liquid
The Uses of 1-Hexadecene
1-Hexadecene is used as an intermediate for organic synthesis. It is utilized as a blend for off-shore drilling fluids. It is also used as a surface active agent, finishing agent, process regulator, functional fluid, lubricant and lubricant additive. Further, it acts as comonomers in polymer such as low density polyethylenes, which shows thiner, flexibility and tearing resistance.
The Uses of 1-Hexadecene
Solvent, organic intermediate, ignition standard for diesel fuels.
