Identity and grade

Typical specifications

  • CAS No.: 123-96-6
  • Product name listed: DL-2-Octanol / 2-Octanol
  • Molecular formula: C8H18O
  • Molecular weight: 130.23
  • EINECS: 204-667-0
  • Grade not clearly stated; confirm industrial, technical, reagent, or custom grade before RFQ
  • Assay / purity not provided in extracted listing; request current COA with GC method
  • Appearance requires confirmation; listing states white to cream, while buyers should verify actual physical form and color against COA/specification
  • Solubility listed: 1.12 g/L; confirm test conditions if relevant
  • Storage note listed: store below +30°C; confirm supplier SDS and transport requirements
Who uses this page

Target buyers

  • Chemical distributors importing industrial alcohols
  • Solvent and intermediate sourcing teams
  • Fragrance, flavor, or specialty chemical buyers requiring CAS-level verification
  • Industrial formulation manufacturers needing C8 alcohol supply
  • Trading companies consolidating China-origin chemical shipments
  • R&D procurement teams seeking small sample quantities before bulk qualification
Before matching

Documents to check

  • CAS number, grade, assay, and impurity profile
  • SDS, COA, TDS, HS code, and transport classification
  • Destination-market import documents before supplier matching
Package and route

Packing notes

  • Listed transport package: 1 kg bag, 25 kg drum; confirm suitability because 2-octanol is commonly supplied as liquid and may require bottle, drum, or IBC packaging
  • Supplier states tailored package available on request; specify required net weight, container material, closure type, palletization, and export marks
  • Request photos of commercial packing, label format, batch number placement, and tamper-evident sealing
  • Confirm sample availability, sample size, sample packing, freight terms, and whether sample COA matches production batch format
  • For overseas shipments, confirm inner/outer packaging compatibility and whether UN-rated packaging is required after DG classification review
Applications and sourcing options

Check whether this product fits the buyer's actual application.

Clear application, grade, package, and document notes help separate real sourcing demand from a vague price check.

Use context

Common applications

  • Industrial intermediate sourcing where CAS 123-96-6 identity must be verified
  • Formulation development requiring a C8 secondary alcohol with documented purity
  • Distributor stock evaluation subject to SDS, COA, and DG transport review
  • Supplier qualification for overseas procurement of specialty alcohols
  • Sample-to-bulk qualification with batch documentation and impurity checks
How we compare

Sourcing options

  • Request sample with COA and SDS before placing bulk order
  • Ask for technical grade quotation with defined minimum assay and impurity limits
  • Request drum or bottle packing suitable for export liquid chemicals
  • Compare supplier COA against third-party test results before commercial acceptance
  • Use third-party pre-shipment inspection for first order or high-value shipments
  • Clarify Incoterms such as EXW, FOB China port, CIF, or DAP before final pricing
Human review

Compliance notes

  • Verify CAS 123-96-6, molecular formula, and product identity against COA, SDS, and invoice before ordering
  • Request latest SDS in GHS format, COA, TDS/specification sheet, packing list, commercial invoice, and certificate of origin if needed
  • Confirm dangerous goods classification, UN number if applicable, packing group if applicable, flash point, and shipping name with the supplier’s logistics team before export
  • Do not rely on marketplace title claims such as low price or fast delivery for compliance decisions
  • Confirm whether the quoted material is DL-2-Octanol, 2-Octanol, or another octanol isomer mixture; isomer distribution may matter for downstream use
  • Ask for impurity profile by GC, water content, acidity, color/APHA if applicable, and residual solvent or heavy metal limits if relevant to your application
  • Check destination-country import controls, chemical inventory status, and end-use restrictions through qualified compliance resources; supplier statements should be verified independently
  • If used in regulated downstream applications, request supporting documents but do not treat supplier marketing claims as regulatory approval

Questions to confirm
  • Can you provide a recent COA for CAS 123-96-6 showing assay, GC purity, water content, color, acidity, and main impurities?
  • Is the material DL-2-Octanol, pure 2-Octanol, or an isomeric octanol blend? Please provide chromatogram or isomer breakdown.
  • What grade is available: industrial, technical, reagent, or custom specification?
  • What is the standard commercial packing for liquid export: 1 kg bottle, 25 kg drum, 180 kg drum, or IBC?
  • Can you confirm the physical form and appearance, since the listing text appears inconsistent for an alcohol product?
  • What is the current SDS revision date and dangerous goods classification for air, sea, and road transport?
  • Can you provide export documents including COA, SDS, TDS, invoice, packing list, and certificate of origin?
  • What is the minimum order quantity for commercial export and what are the sample terms?
