description Product Description
Octadecane is widely used in the production of phase change materials (PCMs) due to its ability to store and release thermal energy during phase transitions. It is applied in thermal energy storage systems, such as in building materials to regulate indoor temperatures and reduce energy consumption. Additionally, octadecane is utilized in the formulation of heat transfer fluids and as a calibration standard in gas chromatography for its consistent thermal properties. It also finds use in the manufacturing of lubricants and as a component in cosmetic products for its emollient properties.
