General description

Decane is an alkane hydrocarbon. It exists as a colourless flammable liquid. It is mostly used as solvent. Its vapors may be narcotic at high concentrations.

Application

Decane may have been used as internal standard in GC analysis for determining the product yield during iron-catalyzed cross coupling performed of primary/secondary alkyl halides with aryl Grignard reagent.
Refer to the product′s Certificate of Analysis for more information on a suitable instrument technique. Contact Technical Service for further support.

The energetics and dynamics of the various phases of decanethiolate self-assembled monolayers on Au(111) surfaces were studied with scanning tunneling microscopy. We have observed five different phases of the decanethiolate monolayer on Au(111): four ordered phases (β, δ, χ*, and

We describe a new setup for simultaneous measurements of force and current in conductive nanocontacts in a liquid environment with a high sampling rate and resolution. A lab-built current-to-voltage converter allows measurements of the current over seven orders of magnitude.
