Description

MilliporeSigma Sigma Organics products encompass a wide range of quality reagents, solvents, catalysts, and building blocks for organic synthesis. From benchtop discovery to process development and scale-up, Sigma Organics solutions are built to meet the needs of synthetic chemists.

8-mercaptooctanoic acid (MOA) forms a self-assembled monolayer (SAM) on the surface of nanoparticles. MOA consists of thiol and carboxylic groups which helps in the surface treatment of different nanoparticles.This compound is used to produce hydrophilic SAMs. The resulting monolayers which are terminated with carboxylic acids can be further functionalized to introduce more complex end groups. Can also be used to form a protective barrier monolayer to allow deposition of a passivating oxide layer.This product should be stored in the freezer, 0 to -20°C
