Description

A white, waxy cyclic alkane that is chemically stable and inert. Cyclododecane is a solid that slowly sublimes at room temperature. It has been used as a temporary consolidant and masking material. Brückle et al. (1999) tested cyclododecane as a temporary fixative to protect water sensitive ink and media during washing treatments. They also evaluated its use as an isolating layer to prevent staining induced by Silicone rubber mold materials.
