  • Applications

    4-Tetradecene, (4E)-, CAS 41446-78-0, is a long-chain internal olefin primarily used as a feedstock and intermediate in industrial chemical production. Real-world applications include: serving as a comonomer or polymer-building block for long-chain polymers and specialty polyolefins; acting as a precursor for functionalized compounds used in coatings, inks, and adhesives (e.g., plasticizer- or lubricant-related derivatives); serving as a platform for olefin functionalization reactions (such as hydrofunctionalization or hydroformylation) to furnish downstream specialty chemicals; and, upon hydrogenation to tetradecane, providing an industrial solvent or base oil in lubricant and oil-and-gas applications.
