Normal Dodecyl Mercaptan is a straight-chain thiol compound with the molecular formula C₁₂H₂₅SH, characterized by a thiol group (-SH) and a 12-carbon alkyl chain. It is a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a strong, pungent odor, insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents, and has a boiling point of approximately 270-280°C. Normal Dodecyl Mercaptan is commonly used in organic synthesis to introduce thiol groups and is widely applied in nanotechnology to modify metal surfaces by forming self-assembled monolayers (SAMs). It is also utilized as an additive in coatings and lubricants to enhance material properties.
The market for Normal Dodecyl Mercaptan (NDM) is primarily driven by its critical role as a chain transfer agent in the polymer and rubber industries, where it helps control polymer molecular weight and enhances processability. Growing demand for high-performance plastics and synthetic rubber in automotive, construction, and consumer goods sectors fuels NDM consumption. Additionally, the expanding coatings, adhesives, and sealants markets further boost demand due to NDM’s role in fine-tuning polymer properties. Technological advancements in polymerization techniques and increased focus on product quality and efficiency also contribute to market growth, alongside rising industrialization and infrastructure development in emerging economies.
