Fatty alcohol is used in surfactants, detergents, emulsifiers, and several chemical intermediates.
Shorter chain fatty alcohols are more soluble, while longer chain fatty alcohols provide greater hydrophobic properties and are used in different formulations.
They are based on fatty alcohol to produce nonionic surfactants in detergents, agrochemicals, and cleaning agents.
It should be kept dry and in controlled conditions, sometimes heated to remain liquid depending on the product grade.
Fatty alcohol is available in large quantities and is widely used in the continuous production of industrial products.
