Application

Tetratetracontane may be used in a passivation layer in copper-phthalocyanine field-effect transistors for improving the charge carrier mobility. It may be used to modify the quasi two-dimensional surface electron system on Au(111), which was investigated by angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy.

General description

Tetratetracontane is a long chain alkane. It is the main constituents of essential oils from Euphorbia macroclada. Coadsorption of tetratetracontane and [Na(H₂O)P₅W₃₀O₁₁₀] results in single, isolated surfactant-encapsulated clusters on a buffer layer of tetratetracontane, which was determined by scanning tunneling microscopy. Thermooxidative degradation of tetratetracontane has been reported.
