It encompasses all critical aspects necessary for Isododecane production, including the cost of Isododecane production, Isododecane plant cost, Isododecane production costs, and the overall Isododecane manufacturing plant cost. Additionally, the study covers specific expenditures associated with setting up and operating an Isododecane production plant. These encompass manufacturing processes, raw material requirements, utility requirements, infrastructure needs, machinery and technology requirements, manpower requirements, packaging requirements, transportation requirements, and more.

Isododecane is an iso-alkyl chemical that is used in the chemical and cosmetics industries. It works as a fluid solvent in the preparation and formulation of several cosmetics and personal care products. It is utilized in the preparation of lotions, creams, moisturizers, etc.  The products developed using Isododecane are utilized for both skin and hair. It iI s added in the formulation and production of a variety of products, like hair serums, conditioners, shampoos, etc. It is used as a chemical emollient and emulsifier that improves the texture of the formulation. Also, it helps maintain the moisture in the applied area and is used in moisturizers, skin serums, cosmetics, etc.

The market for Isododecane is driven by its demand for its usage in the cosmetics and chemical industries. Its usage as a chemical solvent, emulsifier, and emollient in the production of skincare, hair care, and personal care products helps strengthen its demand. Its utilization in the preparation of products such as shampoos, conditioners, moisturizers, lotions, cosmetics, etc, helps boost its demand.  Also, its use in industrial sectors such as lubricants, coatings, and adhesives contribute to its market expansion because of its excellent solvency and stability. The emphasis on sustainable and eco-friendly solvents further enhances industrial Isododecane procurement. Altogether, all these factors contribute to its overall procurement around the globe.

Raw Material for Isododecane Production

According to the Isododecane manufacturing plant project report, the key raw materials used in the production of Isododecane include Starch-Biomass-Catalyst.

Manufacturing Process of Isododecane

The extensive Isododecane production cost report consists of the following major industrial manufacturing process:

• From Starch, Biomass, and Catalyst: The manufacturing process of Isododecane involves oligomerization of isobutene. In this process, starch obtained from natural sources like corn or potatoes, along with biomass, is processed to get isobutene. This isobutene then goes through an oligomerization reaction in the presence of a catalyst, such as zeolite, forming Isododecane as the final product.

Isododecane has a molecular formula of C12H26 and a molecular weight of 170.33 g/mol. Its boiling point ranges from 175 °C to 195 °C, and its melting point is at -81°C. It is a clear, colorless chemical fluid with a density of around 0.74 g/cm³ and a flash point at 45°C. It is slightly soluble in alcohols, such as methanol, and dissolves in chloroform but it is insoluble in water. It is stable under normal conditions but flammable in both liquid and vapor forms.  It is non-toxic but can cause skin irritation with long exposure and requires proper handling.
