Geochemical studies on OZOKERITE (cas 12198-93-5) from the Dead Sea area

Add time:08/03/2019    Source:sciencedirect.com

OZOKERITE (cas 12198-93-5), a natural mixture of long-chain paraffins, is found at Ein-Humar (Jordan) on the eastern escarpment of the Dead Sea. The Ein-Humar ozokerite is mainly composed of saturated n-paraffins from C30 to presumably well into the C50′s with a maximum at C38. IR, NMR and chromatographic data indicate the absence of cycloparaffinic and aromatic molecules. The ozokerite is assumed to be related to the heavy asphalts and oils in the Dead Sea area. It probably forms by separation of high-molecular paraffins from non-paraffinaceous heavy oils or asphalts by geothermal heat and precipitation in the conduits due to lowering of temperature.
