  • Applications

    1-(4-Hydroxyphenyl)-1-nonanone (CAS 14392-69-9) is primarily used as a fragrance ingredient in perfumery and cosmetics, contributing a warm floral character and often serving as a fragrance intermediate for further synthesis. In household products and personal care formulations, it may function as an odor-active component or fragrance contributor. Additionally, due to its phenyl ring bearing a hydroxyl group, it can be considered a precursor for specialty chemicals in coatings and inks, as well as a building block for industrial manufacturing of related polymers or resins. Overall, its applications span perfumery/fragrance, cosmetics/personal care, household products, coatings/inks, and industrial manufacturing as an intermediate in chemical synthesis and fragrance-related materials.
