Description General description Tetracosane is a linear alkane. Structural characteristics of confined squalane and tetracosane under shear flow conditions have been investigated.[3] Solubility of tetracosane in ethane and ethylene have been investigated.[4] Viscosity, liquid density, and surface tension data of its binary and ternary mixtures with various n-alkanes (n-heptane, n-decane or n-hexadecane) have been evaluated.[5] Its solubility in various hydrocarbon solvents (heptane, dodecane, isomeric mixtures of decahydronapthalene, m- and p-xylene) has been studied.[6] Application Tetracosane is the suitable solvent used in the synthesis of ZnS nanoparticle.[1] It may be employed as the wax component to study the reduction in pour point of hydrocarbon solvents containing wax crystals on addition of polymer additives.[2] Packaging 25 g in poly bottle
