For more than 20 years, Parchem – fine & specialty chemicals has been a leading global distributor of fatty acids such as stearic acid. Stearic Acid [CAS: 57-11-4] is a waxy solid at room temperature. This saturated fatty acid has an 18-carbon chain which is notably hydrophobic (water-repellant), but the carboxyl group at the end of the molecule is hydrophilic (attracted to water), which makes stearic acid quite versatile as a mixing agent for oil/water complexes. Stearic acid is one of the most naturally common saturated fatty acids, second only to Palmitic acid, which has a shorter 16-carbon chain.

Parchem is a leading supplier of high quality petrochemical intermediates such as Propylene Tetramer! Propylene tetramer [CAS: 6842-15-5] is an olefin petrochemical that is an important building block in the production of downstream chemical derivatives. Propylene Tetramer is produced by the polymerization of propylene with a solid phased phosphoric acid catalyst. Propylene Tetramer is often also referred to as dodecene. a versatile petrochemical with polymeric functionality, propylene tetramer is a useful chemical intermediate for a variety of applications. Main applications of propylene tetramer include using it as an additive for fuel and lubricants. Other uses include utilizing propylene tetramer in the production of plasticizers, surfactants, emulsifiers for herbicides, and as a corrosion inhibitor in coatings. Propylene tetramer is also an important component of traditional fuel (gasoline) and generally has a high octane rating.

Parchem – fine and specialty chemicals is a leading supplier of diethyl malonate [CAS 105-53-3]. Organic chemical intermediates such as diethyl malonate play a vital role in today’s chemical industry as they are useful building blocks for downstream intermediates and derivatives in a variety of applications. Diethyl malonate is often found naturally in common fruits such as strawberries and grapes; its distinctly sweet and apple-like odor makes it useful in a variety of perfumes and fragrances. However, it is much more common to synthetically produce diethyl malonate from its precursor malonic acid, a dicarboxylic acid that is also widely used as an organic intermediate for synthesis.
