141-23-1 Usage
Description
Methyl 12-hydroxy stearate is won by direct esterfication of 12-Hydroxy stearic acid with methanol. Methyl 12-hydroxy stearate is sold in solid and liquid form. It is used in the continuous grease process. Greases made with Methyl 12-hydroxy stearate can be formulated to higher drop points. Greases experience less bleeding and improved oxidative stability. Methyl 12-hydroxy stearate is also used in textile ancillary, cosmetics and paper industry.

Uses
Different sources of media describe the Uses of 141-23-1 differently. You can refer to the following data:
1. Adhesives, inks, cosmetics greases.
2. Methyl 12-Hydroxystearate is a fatty acid reagent used in the study of sphingomyelin through site specific deuterium labelling. Also used in the preparation of ricinoleate-based lipoconjugates of phenolic acids for antioxidant and antifubgal properties.
Flammability and Explosibility
Notclassified
Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 141-23-1 includes 6 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 3 digits, 1,4 and 1 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 2 and 3 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 141-23:
(5*1)+(4*4)+(3*1)+(2*2)+(1*3)=31
31 % 10 = 1
So 141-23-1 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
