SASOL ORGANICS

Sasol Chemicals ALFOL 6 Alcohol is high purity, petrochemical-based 1-hexanol (also known as hexyl alcohol). ALFOL 6 Alcohol is a colorless liquid with a sweet pungent odor. ALFOL 6 Alcohol is classified as readily biodegradable in standard ready biodegradability tests. ALFOL 6 Alcohol can be esterified, ethoxylated, propoxylated, sulfated, oxidized, etc. Sasol Chemicals ALFOL alcohols are physically and chemically equivalent to corresponding oleochemical-based alcohols derived from such sources as coconut oil or palm oil.

Sasol Chemicals ALFOL 8 Alcohol is high purity, petrochemical-based 1-octanol (also known as octyl alcohol). ALFOL 8 Alcohol is a colorless liquid with a sweet pungent odor. ALFOL 8 Alcohol is classified as readily biodegradable in standard ready biodegradability tests. ALFOL 8 Alcohol can be esterified, ethoxylated, propoxylated, sulfated, oxidized, etc. Sasol Chemicals ALFOL alcohols are physically and chemically equivalent to corresponding oleochemical-based alcohols derived from such sources as coconut oil or palm oil.

Sasol Chemicals ISOFOL alcohols are primary, saturated alcohols with defined branching of the carbon chain. Such alcohols are chemically described as 2-alkyl-1-alkanols and are also referred to as Guerbet alcohols. ISOFOL alcohols are high purity alcohols which offer excellent oxidative and color stability. Additionally, the twin 100% linear alkyl branches of the ISOFOL alcohols give a lower viscosity and better biodegradability than dimer alcohols derived from oxo-alcohols. The unique chemical structure of the ISOFOL alcohols also provides good solubility and solvency.

Ester derived from trimellitic acid anhydride by reaction with mixtures of even-numbered, linear primary saturated alcohols

Sasol Chemicals LIPOXOL grades are polyethylene glycols available with an average molecular weight of 200 to 8000 g/mol. The average molecular weight is given in the product name. LIPOXOL 1000 is solid at 25°C and has the following structural formula: HO-(CH2CH2O)20-H.
