  • Applications

    1-(Dodecyloxy)tetradecane (CAS 59012-60-1) is primarily used as a nonionic surfactant and co-surfactant in formulation systems, supporting wetting, dispersion, and emulsification in cosmetics, household cleaners, and industrial formulations. It also serves as an emollient and solvent component in cosmetic and personal care products. In coatings, inks, and polymer processing, it can act as a processing aid, lubricant, or plasticizer, improving flow, film formation and flexibility. It is also evaluated as a component in specialty lubricants and as a surfactant additive in polymer and manufacturing formulations. Use is subject to local regulations and formulation limits.
