Octyl-Decyl Alcohol Supplier in Malaysia
- Also known as
- C8-C10 Fatty Alcohol
Octyl-decyl alcohol supplier for surfactant, cleaning, personal-care and specialty chemical manufacturers in Malaysia. Also called C8-C10 fatty alcohol, it is a clear liquid mixture purchased against octyl and decyl chain distribution.
Buyers can specify a balanced C8-C10 cut, an octyl-rich or decyl-rich profile, or a low-colour application grade. Hydroxyl value, neighbouring homologues, water, acid value, colour and feedstock declaration guide material matching.
Manufacturers convert Octyl-decyl alcohol into surfactants, esters, plasticiser intermediates and lubricants, while selected grades serve personal-care, coating and cleaning formulations. Pure octanol, pure decanol and longer-chain fatty-alcohol blends remain separate products.
Send the required C8-C10 profile, quality controls, quantity and delivery location for an Octyl-decyl alcohol supplier Malaysia quotation. Availability, packing, documentation and delivery timing are confirmed with the commercial offer.

- Appearance
- Clear, colourless to pale liquid with a mild fatty-alcohol odour
Octyl-Decyl Alcohol grades and forms
We supply several forms to suit different formulating and dosing setups. If you need a size that is not listed, ask us.
| Grade | Form | Assay | Typical use | Packing |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Balanced C8-C10 Octyl-decyl alcohol | Clear liquid mixed fatty alcohol | — | Surfactant, ester and specialty chemical manufacture that requires a declared balance of octyl and decyl alcohol with controlled neighbouring homologues. | Compatible liquid packing is confirmed with the quotation. |
| Octyl-rich C8-C10 fatty alcohol | Clear liquid with a higher C8 fraction | — | Conversion and formulation processes that specify an octyl-rich chain distribution, hydroxyl value, colour, water and acidity profile. | Liquid packing is confirmed for the quoted carbon-chain profile. |
| Decyl-rich C8-C10 fatty alcohol | Clear liquid with a higher C10 fraction | — | Surfactant, lubricant and ester routes that need a decyl-rich cut with buyer-defined homolog distribution and melt or handling behaviour. | Compatible packing is confirmed with the quotation. |
| Low-colour application grade Octyl-decyl alcohol | Refined clear liquid | — | Personal-care, cleaning and specialty formulations where colour, odour, moisture and process-relevant impurity limits are part of the receiving specification. | Application-suitable liquid packing is confirmed with the quotation. |

Octyl-Decyl Alcohol applications
Common questions about Octyl-decyl alcohol
What is Octyl-decyl alcohol?
Octyl-decyl alcohol is a mixed C8-C10 fatty alcohol containing declared octyl and decyl alcohol fractions. It is purchased by carbon-chain distribution, hydroxyl value, colour, water and application requirements.
Is C8-C10 fatty alcohol the same as Octyl-decyl alcohol?
Yes. C8-C10 fatty alcohol is the commercial chain-range description for the Octyl-decyl alcohol mixture. The exact C8 and C10 balance can still vary by grade.
Is Octyl-decyl alcohol the same as pure 1-octanol or 1-decanol?
No. Pure octanol and pure decanol are single-component products, while Octyl-decyl alcohol is a declared mixed cut. They require separate composition and purity specifications and should not be substituted by name alone.
How do octyl-rich and decyl-rich grades differ?
Their relative C8 and C10 fractions differ, which can affect conversion, volatility, melt behaviour and the properties of downstream esters or surfactants. State the homolog distribution used by the existing process.
Is Octyl-decyl alcohol the same as a C12-C14 fatty-alcohol blend?
No. Lauryl, myristyl and other longer-chain alcohol cuts have different chain distributions and physical behaviour. They belong under their own product specifications.
Does this page establish a fixed palm or petrochemical origin?
No. Feedstock and production route are procurement attributes that should be stated when material origin matters. The quotation confirms the available grade against the buyer's source declaration requirement.
How are packing, documents and price confirmed?
Send the chain profile, quality specification, quantity and Malaysian delivery location. The quotation confirms availability, compatible packing, available documentation, delivery timing, price and its validity period.
