Sign in to saveAlso known as p-Nonylphenol, p-n-Nonylphenol, para Nonyl phenol
1-Nonyl-4-phenol is an organic compound consisting of an n-nonyl group attached to the 4-position of phenol. The related nonylphenols with branched nonyl groups are commercially important detergents. It is used with mixed-metals stabilizers for heat stabilization of plastic and is a starting material for producing phenol resins. 1-Nonyl-4-phenol is insoluble in water, but soluble in organic compounds like benzene and heptane.
