Uses
Cyclododecane is considered as a new product in the conservation industry that is utilized as a temporary fixative, consolidant, barrier layer, and masking material in numerous fields of specialization. As a consolidant, it protects fragile ceramics while moving; therefore, allowing packaging and handling without any damage. As a temporary adhesive, cyclododecane has also been used remove subsequent of an adhesive without causing any damage.
Its film-forming properties are one of the desirable working characteristics. The compound has been employed as a fixative for moisture-sensitive media on paper in the process of aqueous treatment. Due to its non-polar quality, cyclododecane can be used to protect materials that are solvent-sensitive during local solvent treatment.
At room temperature, cyclododecane has the ability form a typically rigid solid, therefore, it has been used to secure friable substrates or flaking paint during transportation or during cleaning in surrounding. Moreover, it has been used to isolate the surface of an object when making mold. Cyclooctane and cyclononane are used as starting materials
for organic synthesis. The major use of cyclododecane is as
an intermediate for the production of chemicals used to make
polyamides, polyesters, synthetic lubricating oils, and nylon
12; it is also used as a high-purity solvent. An emulsion of
cyclododecane can be used to emulsify pesticides. It is also
used as a mothproofing agent.
