Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The invention relates to nonyl alcohols with a low degree of branching and derivatives produced using them. In particular the present invention relates to mixture of primary nonyl alcohols in which at least 80% of the alkyl chains are linear and at least 15% of the alkyl chains are branched at the 2-carbon position and its derivatives. The low degree of branching produces derivatives that are more elongated and less bulky that similar derivatives produced with more highly branched alcohols.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed: 1. A mixture of nonyl alcohols comprising at least 80% linear nonyl alcohols and at least 15% of branched nonyl alcohols having branching at the 2-carbon position. 2. A plasticizer comprising a diester of a mixture of nonyl alcohols comprising at least 80% linear nonyl alcohols and at least 15% of branched nonyl alcohols having branching at the 2-carbon position with one or more diacids. 3. A plasticizer as claimed in claim 2 wherein the diacid comprises phthalic acid, adipic acid, sebacic acid and succinic acid. 4. A plasticizer comprising a polyester of a mixture of nonyl alcohols comprising at least 80% linear nonyl alcohols and at least 15% of branched nonyl alcohols having branching at the 2-carbon position with one or more polyacids. 5. A plasticizer as claimed in claim 4 wherein the polyacid comprises trimellitic acid and terephthalic acid. 6. An alcohol derivative comprising a polyalkoxylate, sulfate, sulfated polyalkoxylate, or ether amine of a mixture of nonyl alcohols comprising at least 80% linear nonyl alcohols and at least 15% of branched nonyl alcohols having branching at the 2-carbon position. 7. A hard surface cleaning formulation containing an alcohol derivative as claimed in claim 6 . 8. A laundry detergent formulation containing an alcohol derivative as claimed in claim 6 .
