Sodium 2-ethylhexanoate（Cat No.:R031118）is the sodium salt of 2-ethylhexanoic acid, widely used as a stabilizer, catalyst, and corrosion inhibitor in industrial and chemical processes. It serves as an effective metal soap in applications such as polymer stabilization, coatings, lubricants, and plasticizers. Due to its solubility in non-polar solvents and thermal stability, it is commonly employed in organometallic synthesis and as a catalyst precursor in polyester and alkyd resin production. Its branched alkyl structure provides enhanced dispersibility, making it valuable in both aqueous and non-aqueous formulations across various industries.
