N-cetyltrichlorosilane is one of the organosilicon compounds. Its main uses are quite extensive. In the field of material surface modification, it has a significant effect. By reacting with the hydroxyl group on the surface of the material, an organosilicon alkyl modified layer can be constructed on the surface of the material. This modified layer can greatly change the wettability of the material surface, transform the surface of the original hydrophilic material into hydrophobic, or enhance its anti-fouling properties. If used in building materials, it can make the building surface water-repellent, prevent rain erosion, and prolong the service life of the building. N-cetyltrichlorosilane is also an important raw material in the preparation of special functional coatings. By means of chemical vapor deposition or solution coating, it can be coated on the surface of the substrate material to form a coating with specific functions. This coating may have good wear resistance and corrosion resistance. It is used in aerospace, automobile manufacturing and other fields to protect the surface of parts and improve their performance and service life. Furthermore, in the preparation of nanomaterials, N-hexadecyltrichlorosilane can be used as a surfactant. It can adsorb on the surface of nanoparticles to prevent nanoparticles from agglomerating, so that the nanoparticles are uniformly dispersed in the solution, thereby ensuring the stability of nanomaterials and laying the foundation for further application of nanomaterials.

What are the chemical properties of N-Hexadecyltrichlorosilane?

N-hexadecyltrichlorosilane, which is a kind of organosilicon compound. It has the following chemical properties: It bears the brunt and has high hydrolytic activity. Because the molecule contains trichlorosilane (-SiCl), it is very easy to hydrolyze in contact with water. When it is hydrolyzed, the chlorine atoms in the trichlorosilane group will be gradually replaced by hydroxyl groups (-OH), and then N-hexadecylsilanol and hydrogen chloride are formed. The reaction process can be expressed as: N-C H < unk > SiCl < unk > + 3H < unk > O → N-C H < unk > Si (OH) < unk > + 3HCl. Hydrogen chloride produced by hydrolysis is a strongly acidic substance, which will enhance the acidity of the reaction system. Furthermore, a condensation reaction can occur. The hydroxyl groups in the molecules of N-cetylsilanol produced by hydrolysis have a tendency to condensate with each other. When condensed, water molecules will be removed, and then silica bonds (-Si-O-Si) will be formed. The condensation of multiple N-cetylsilanol molecules may produce linear, cyclic or reticulated polysiloxane structures. This reaction is more likely to occur under appropriate catalyst and reaction conditions, and the structure and molecular weight of the product can be regulated by controlling the reaction conditions. In addition, N-cetyltrichlorosilane can react with compounds containing active hydrogen. When reacting with alcohols (ROH), the chlorine atom in the trichlorosilane group can be replaced by an alkoxy group (-OR) to form N-cetylalkoxysilane. The reaction is as follows: N-C H 🥰 SiCl 🥰 + 3ROH → N-C H 🥰 Si (OR) 🥰 + 3HCl. This reaction is widely used in the field of organic synthesis and material surface modification. In addition, because the molecule contains both long-chain alkyl (hexadecyl) and silicone chloride bonds, it has both lipophilicity and reactivity. Long-chain alkyl groups endow them with certain lipophilic properties, which can make them have good solubility and dispersion in the organic phase; while the existence of silicon chloride bonds makes them able to chemically react with a variety of substances, providing the possibility for functional modification of materials. This property is of great significance in the preparation of organic-inorganic hybrid materials with special properties.

N-Hexadecyltrichlorosilane what are the precautions during use

N-cetyltrichlorosilane is an organosilicon compound. When using it, many matters must be paid attention to. First, this substance is strongly irritating to the skin, eyes and respiratory props. Therefore, when using it, be sure to wear suitable protective equipment, such as protective gloves, goggles and gas masks, to prevent contact with it and cause damage to the body. Second, N-cetyltrichlorosilane is highly hydrolyzed. In humid air, it reacts quickly with water to form hydrogen chloride gas. Therefore, it should be stored in a dry, cool and well-ventilated place, and it should be protected from exposure to humid environment during access. After use, seal the container immediately to prevent moisture from invading. Third, because of its high reactivity, it needs to be carefully controlled during use. The operation should be carried out in a place with good ventilation conditions to prevent the accumulation of harmful gases. And it is necessary to precisely control the dosage and reaction conditions according to the specific reaction requirements, such as temperature, reaction time, etc., to ensure the smooth progress of the reaction and avoid unnecessary side reactions. Fourth, this compound may react violently with certain substances. Before mixing or using, it is necessary to fully understand its compatibility with other chemicals to prevent dangerous situations such as fires and explosions caused by improper mixing. Fifth, after use, the disposal of residues and waste should also be cautious. Follow relevant environmental regulations and laboratory regulations, properly dispose of waste containing N-cetyltrichlorosilane, and do not dump it at will to avoid pollution to the environment.

What is the preparation method of N-Hexadecyltrichlorosilane?

The method of preparing N-cetyltrichlorosilane is not detailed in ancient books, but people today can explore its preparation according to the principles of modern chemistry. Cetyl alcohol and trichlorosilane are often used as raw materials, and the substitution reaction is carried out under suitable reaction conditions. For the reaction to be smooth, an inert gas environment needs to be prepared to prevent the reactants from interacting with water vapor and other components in the air. This is because trichlorosilane is easily hydrolyzed in contact with water, resulting in inaccurate reaction. When reacting, catalysts are also indispensable. Metal halides can be selected as catalysts to accelerate the reaction process and increase the yield. The reaction temperature is also critical, usually controlled in a moderate range, such as 60-80 degrees Celsius. If the temperature is too low, the reaction will be slow; if the temperature is too high, side reactions may occur and the purity of the product will be damaged. After the reaction is completed, the product is often mixed with unreacted raw materials, catalysts and by-products. At this time, pure N-cetyltrichlorosilane must be obtained by separation and purification methods such as distillation and extraction. During distillation, the target product is separated from impurities according to the boiling point of each component. Extraction can select a suitable solvent, extract the product from the reaction mixture, and then dry and evaporate to obtain a pure product. In this way, N-cetyltrichlorosilane can be prepared by modern chemical methods, controlling reaction conditions, and making good use of separation and purification techniques.

What is the market price range for N-Hexadecyltrichlorosilane?

N-hexadecyltrichlorosilane, its market price range varies depending on many factors. This substance is widely used in the chemical industry and plays an important role in material surface modification and preparation of organic-inorganic hybrid materials. The market price is often affected by the cost of raw materials, the complexity of production processes, and market supply and demand conditions. Generally speaking, if it is an ordinary industrial-grade product with sufficient market supply, the price per kilogram may be in the hundreds of yuan. However, if the purity requirements are extremely high, such as for scientific research or high-end material preparation, the price will rise significantly. High-purity products can cost tens of yuan or even more per gram, and the price per kilogram may exceed 10,000 yuan. For example, on some chemical raw material trading platforms, common industrial purity products are purchased in bulk, and the price per kilogram may be in the range of 300-800 yuan. However, the price of specially customized and ultra-high purity products will far exceed this range due to the difficulty of preparation and limited output. In short, the market price of N-hexadecyltrichlorosilane varies widely. Purchasers need to weigh costs and quality according to their actual needs and uses, and consult suppliers in detail to obtain accurate price information.
