General description

Hexacosane is one of the important component of the essential oil of Moringa oleifera (Moringaceae).

Application

Hexacosane can be used:
  • To prepare sulfonated hexacosanes, which are used as phase-change materials in the latent heat thermal energy storage process.
  • As a model n-alkane to study the solid-liquid equilibrium of binary mixtures in N,N-dimethylacetamide and N,N-dimethylformamide.

Cuticular hydrocarbons (CHCs) are important, multi-function components of the insect epicuticle. In Drosophila spp., CHCs provide protection from desiccation and serve as semiochemicals for both intra- and interspecific communication.
