Tetra-n-octylammonium bromide is associated with benzethonium chloride and used as a disinfectant, in surface treatment and preservative in hospitals and industries. It is used as a surfactant involved in the synthesis of blue-luminescent silicon nanoparticles in order to get uniform particle size. It is utilized as a cationic additive in the preparation of membranes using cyclam derivative 1,4,8,11-tetra(n-octyl)-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane as an ionphore and dibutyl phthalate as plasticizers.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
