Hexyl Octyl Alcohol Supplier in Malaysia
- Also known as
- C6-C8 Fatty Alcohol
Hexyl octyl alcohol supplier in Malaysia for oleochemical, surfactant and personal-care intermediate buyers. Traded as a C6-C8 fatty alcohol cut, this material is based on a declared mixture of hexan-1-ol and octan-1-ol.
Standard cuts carry a mixed C6 and C8 profile for general surfactant, ester and emollient intermediate work. Fractionated cuts enrich the hexanol or octanol fraction where the downstream derivative requires a narrower carbon-chain distribution.
The cut is a mixed alcohol stream, not the single branched compound 2-hexyl-1-octanol, and the two are ordered separately. State the required carbon-chain distribution and hydroxyl value when you enquire.
Send the required cut specification, quantity and delivery location with your enquiry. Availability, packing, documentation and delivery timing are confirmed with the quotation. Supply is subject to applicable requirements.
- Grade
- standard C6-C8 cut, fractionated cut, cosmetic grade
- Appearance
- colourless to pale yellow liquid

Common questions about hexyl octyl alcohol
What is hexyl octyl alcohol?
It is an oleochemical fatty alcohol cut containing mainly hexan-1-ol and octan-1-ol. It is a mixed cut rather than a single compound, and its feedstock and production route should be declared when relevant to the buyer.
Is hexyl octyl alcohol the same as 2-hexyl-1-octanol?
No. 2-hexyl-1-octanol is a single branched-chain alcohol with its own specification. The cut on this page is a mixture of C6 and C8 primary alcohols, so order each by name.
Which cut specification should I request?
Standard cuts carry a mixed C6-C8 profile, while fractionated cuts enrich the hexanol or octanol fraction for ester and derivative work. Send the carbon-chain distribution and hydroxyl value requirement with the enquiry.
How is hexyl octyl alcohol packed?
Liquid-pack requirements depend on quantity, receiving setup and the quoted cut. State any handling constraints so a compatible format can be confirmed with the quotation.
What details are needed for a hexyl octyl alcohol price enquiry?
Send the cut specification, quantity and delivery location. The quotation carries its own validity period because the offer depends on those inputs.
