Water-white distilled liquid; mild odor.
15.2% chloride, subject to mild hydrolysis on standing.
1-Chlorotetradecane has been used:
- in preparation of nonionic microemulsion of pentaoxyethylene glycol dodecyl ether, water and 1-chlorotetradecane
- as internal standard in determination of 3-chloropropane-1,2-diol in hydrolyzed vegetable protein by capillary gas chromatography with electrolytic conductivity detection
1-Chlorotetradecane is used as a chemical intermediate.
1-Chlorotetradecane is a useful synthetic intermediate. It is an intermediate used to prepare Dimethyldimyristyl ammonium chloride (D472560), a surfactant.
Phase behavior and phase separation kinetics of ternary nonionic microemulsion system composed of pentaethylene glycol dodecyl ether, water and 1-chlorotetradecane was studied.
