This product is supplied directly from the factory at a very competitive price, ensuring high - quality and cost - effective raw materials for various industries.
It usually appears as a clear, colorless liquid with a characteristic odor. The boiling point of ISOPROPYL (S)-(-)-LACTATE is around 168 - 170 °C, and the density is about 0.983 g/mL at 25 °C. It is soluble in many organic solvents, such as ethanol, ether, and acetone, which makes it highly compatible with different chemical systems.
1. **Solvent in the Coating Industry**: ISOPROPYL (S)-(-)-LACTATE is widely used as a solvent in the production of coatings. It can dissolve a variety of resin components, helping to improve the fluidity and leveling of the coating. This results in a smooth, uniform, and high - gloss finish on the coated surface. It also contributes to the quick drying of coatings, reducing production time.
2. **Intermediate in Pharmaceutical Synthesis**: In the pharmaceutical field, it serves as an important intermediate. It can participate in various chemical reactions to synthesize more complex pharmaceutical compounds. Its chiral structure (S)- configuration is often crucial for the synthesis of drugs with specific biological activities.
3. **Flavor and Fragrance Industry**: Due to its mild and pleasant odor, it is used as a flavor and fragrance ingredient. It can be added to perfumes, food flavors, and other products to enhance the overall olfactory experience.
1. **Handling Precautions**: When handling ISOPROPYL (S)-(-)-LACTATE, appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) should be worn, including safety glasses, gloves, and a lab coat. It should be stored in a cool, dry, and well - ventilated area, away from sources of ignition and heat.
2. **Dosage and Mixing**: In the coating industry, the dosage of ISOPROPYL (S)-(-)-LACTATE depends on the specific formulation of the coating. Generally, it is added in a proportion of 5% - 20% by weight. When mixing, it should be slowly added to the coating system under continuous stirring to ensure uniform dispersion.
3. **Reaction Conditions in Pharmaceutical Synthesis**: In pharmaceutical synthesis, the reaction conditions need to be carefully controlled. The temperature, pressure, and reaction time should be optimized according to the specific reaction requirements. Catalysts may also be required to promote the reaction.
1. **Coating Application in the Automotive Industry**: A major automotive coating manufacturer used ISOPROPYL (S)-(-)-LACTATE in their new water - based primer formulation. By adding 10% of this lactate, they were able to significantly improve the leveling and gloss of the primer. The drying time was reduced by 30%, leading to increased production efficiency. As a result, the quality of the automotive coatings improved, and customer satisfaction increased.
2. **Pharmaceutical Synthesis of a Chiral Drug**: A pharmaceutical company was synthesizing a new chiral drug. ISOPROPYL (S)-(-)-LACTATE was used as a key intermediate. Through a series of well - designed chemical reactions, they successfully obtained the target chiral drug with high enantiomeric purity. This not only improved the drug's efficacy but also reduced potential side effects.
