Product Name: N-Tetradecylphosphonic Acid
Chinese Name: N-十四烷基膦酸
Molecular Formula: C₁₄H₃₁O₃P
Molecular Weight: 278.37 g/mol
Structure: N-Tetradecylphosphonic acid consists of a straight-chain tetradecyl (C14) alkyl group attached to a phosphonic acid functional group (-PO(OH)₂), making it an alkylphosphonic acid.
N-Tetradecylphosphonic acid is a long-chain alkyl phosphonic acid commonly used as a surface-modifying agent due to its strong affinity for metal oxides. The phosphonic acid group enables stable chemisorption onto metal and metal oxide surfaces, while the hydrophobic alkyl chain imparts self-assembly and surface compatibility, making it valuable in nanotechnology, coatings, and materials science.
Surface treatment agent for metal oxides such as TiO₂, ZnO, and Al₂O₃.
Modifier for nanoparticle surfaces to improve dispersion and compatibility.
Intermediate in the synthesis of organophosphorus compounds and surfactants.
Formation of self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) on metal oxide substrates.
Used in corrosion-resistant coatings and functional thin films.
Applied in the design of hybrid organic-inorganic nanomaterials and functional interfaces.
