Lauryl myristyl alcohol is a type of fatty alcohol which is a form of the combination of C12 and C14 that is lauryl and myristyl. 
Lauryl myristyl alcohol is also known as DodecanolTetradecanol. 

Laurel myristyl alcohol is colorless liquid and has a mild odor and decomposes when subjected to excessive heat. 
The life span of Laurel myristyl alcohol is one year from its date of manufacturing. 

The Lauryl myristyl alcohol has extensive uses in several industries including food, cosmetic, automotive, textile, and chemical industries. 
Lauryl myristyl alcohol is used as an intermediate in the manufacture of surfactants.

Lauryl myristyl alcohol is a fatty alcohol produced from myristic acid that appears as a white, waxy solid. 
Lauryl myristyl alcohol is also present in palm kernel oil and coconut oil, which are the primary sources for production. 

Lauryl myristyl alcohol has emollient and emulsion stabilising properties, and Lauryl myristyl alcohol is used in some skincare formulations to help moisturise the skin as well as prevent the soluble ingredients from separating.
Lauryl myristyl alcohol is a colourless liquid product with typical fatty alcohol odour and used directly as foam stabilisers, detergency-boosting and lubricant additives.

Lauryl myristyl alcohol originated from Palm Kernel Oil or RBD Coconut Oil based alcohol and used for fatty alcohol ethoxylates, detergents, plasticizers, lubricants & anti-oxidants.
Lauryl myristyl alcohols are biodegradable nonionic surfactants composed of ethylene oxide adduct of Lauryl Myristyl Alcohol. 

Lauryl myristyl alcohols vary in physical appearance, from clear or slightly hazy, colorless liquids to white solids, depending upon the level of ethoxylation. 
In general, with increase in the ethylene oxide chain attached to the Lauryl Alcohol hydrophobe increases the HLB value (water solubility), pour point, cloud point, density, viscosity, and flash point of the ethoxylate. 

Lauryl myristyl alcohol is used in creams, shampoos and hair conditioners. 
In foaming detergents, Lauryl myristyl alcohol is able to stabilize and enhance foaming.

Lauryl myristyl alcohol is a type of fatty alcohol which is a form of the combination of C12 and C14 that is lauryl and myristyl. 
Lauryl myristyl alcohol is a colorless, water-insoluble, and readily biodegradable liquid and decomposes when subjected to excessive heat. 

The shelf life of Lauryl myristyl alcohol is one year from its date of manufacturing.
Lauryl myristyl alcoholcan be derived from both organic and synthetic sources. 

The organic sources of Lauryl myristyl alcohols have largely been various vegetable oils and these remain a large-scale feedstock. 
Lauryl myristyl alcohols are obtained from the triglycerides (fatty acid triesters), which form the bulk of the oil. 

The process involves the transesterification of the triglycerides to give methyl esters which are then hydrogenated to give the fatty alcohols. 
Lauryl myristyl alcohols are obtained from coconut oil (C12–C14) or palm kernel oil (C16–C18).

Lauryl myristyl alcohol is mainly used as a chemical intermediate in the production of detergents, washing agents, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics.
