Diethyl sebacate(CAS: 110-40-7)

Diethyl sebacate is an organic compound with the chemical formula (C2H5OC16H31)2. It is a colorless, oily liquid with a characteristic odor. Diethyl sebacate is used in various applications due to its solubility and plasticizing properties.

Diethyl sebacate is primarily used in the plastic industry as a plasticizer, enhancing flexibility and reducing brittleness in polymers. It is also used in the production of coatings, adhesives, and as a solvent for various organic compounds. Additionally, it finds application in the pharmaceutical and personal care industries as a solvent and carrier for active ingredients.

Diethyl sebacate has a low toxicity and is generally considered safe for industrial use. However, it should be handled with care to avoid skin and inhalation exposure. Proper protective equipment, such as gloves and goggles, should be used during handling. Compliance with local regulations and safety standards is essential to ensure safe use.

Diethyl sebacate should be stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and sources of ignition. It should be kept in tightly sealed containers to prevent moisture and air exposure. The storage temperature should not exceed 30°C to maintain stability. Adequate ventilation should be provided to avoid the formation of flammable vapors.
