Patent ID: 11124881

Abstract:
The objective of the present invention is to provide a hydrophilic metal surface treatment agent by which a water-repellent property can be given to a metal surface with suppressing a corrosion and a discolorment of the metal, a method for treating a surface of a metal by using the hydrophilic metal surface treatment agent, a synthetic intermediate compound of a branched glycerol derivative as an active ingredient of the hydrophilic metal surface treatment agent, and a method for efficiently producing the synthetic intermediate compound. The hydrophilic metal surface treatment agent of the present invention is characterized in comprising the branched glycerol derivative represented by the following formula (I) as an active ingredient. wherein R1 is a hydrocarbon group having a carbon number of 10 or more and 30 or less, X is S or a carbonyl group, Y is an n+1 valent linker group, n is an integer of 1 or more and 5 or less.
