  2. 1-Octene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1-Octene

    1-Octene is an organic compound with a formula CH 2 CHC 6 H 13.The alkene is classified as a higher olefin and alpha-olefin, meaning that the double bond is located at the alpha (primary) position, endowing this compound with higher reactivity and thus useful chemical properties. 1-Octene is one of the important linear alpha olefins in industry.

  3. Octene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Octene

    1-octene. Octene is an alkene with the formula C 8 H 16.Several isomers of octene are known, depending on the position and the geometry of the double bond in the carbon chain.. The simplest isomer is 1-octene, an alpha-olefin used primarily as a co-monomer in production of polyethylene via the solution polymerization process.

  4. Oct-1-en-3-one - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oct-1-en-3-one

    Oct-1-en-3-one is the degradative reduction product of the chemical reaction of skin lipid peroxides and Fe 2+. Skin lipid peroxides are formed from skin lipid by oxidation, either enzymatically by lipoxygenases or by air oxygen. Oct-1-en-3-one is a ketone analog of the alkene 1-octene.

    Indoor air pollution is a major health hazard in developing countries and is commonly referred to as "household air pollution" in that context. [5] It is mostly relating to cooking and heating methods by burning biomass fuel , in the form of wood , charcoal , dung , and crop residue , in indoor environments that lack proper ventilation.

  6. 1-Octen-3-ol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1-Octen-3-ol

    1-Octen-3-ol, octenol for short and also known as mushroom alcohol, [1] is a chemical that attracts biting insects such as mosquitoes. It is contained in human breath and sweat, and it is believed that insect repellent DEET works by blocking the insects' octenol odorant receptors .

  7. Straight-chain terminal alkene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straight-chain_terminal_alkene

    Straight-chain terminal alkenes, also called linear alpha olefins (LAO) or normal alpha olefins (NAO), are alkenes (olefins) having a chemical formula C n H 2n, distinguished from other alkenes with a similar molecular formula by being terminal alkenes, in which the double bond occurs at the alpha (α-, 1-or primary) position, and by having a linear (unbranched) hydrocarbon chain.

    During the 2023 holiday season, which ran from Nov. 1, 2022, to Jan. 31, 2023, about 14,900 people were treated at hospitals for holiday decorating-related injuries, the CPSC said.

  9. Polyolefin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyolefin

    Examples include adding a small percentage of comonomer like 1-hexene or 1-octene during the polymerization of ethylene, [3] or occasional irregular insertions ("stereo" or "regio" defects) during the polymerization of isotactic propylene. [4] The polymer's ability to crystallize to high degrees decreases with increasing content of defects.
