Description
Application
Used as a flavorfragrance agent in food and perfumes solvent in inks paints and cosmetics intermediate for plasticizers surfactants and lubricants and as a standard in octanol-water partition coefficient (logP) tests for drug discovery.
Purpose
Functions as a model for lipophilicity in pharmaceutical research to predict membrane permeability its chain length aids in emulsification and extraction processes due to amphiphilic properties.
General Description
