Product Description
12-Mercaptododecanoic acid is a long-chain carboxylic acid containing a mercapto (thiol) functional group. It is commonly used as a surface modifier in the synthesis of nanoparticles and as a stabilizer in the production of colloidal systems.
Application:
12-Mercaptododecanoic acid is primarily employed as a surface modifier in the synthesis of gold and silver nanoparticles, where it acts as a capping agent to control particle size and stability. It is also utilized as a stabilizer in the preparation of colloidal dispersions and emulsions.
