  • Applications

    11-Hydroxy-9-tridecenoic acid (CAS 105798-56-9) is an unsaturated hydroxy fatty acid that is typically used as an intermediate in organic synthesis. In industry, it is commonly evaluated as a building block for the preparation of specialty esters and derivatives that contribute to polymer, coatings, and adhesive formulations. It can function as a monomer or chain extender in polymer systems, including polyester and polyurethane chemistries, and can be transformed into fragrance or cosmetic ingredient derivatives. Its hydroxyl functionality enables conversion into plasticizers or stabilizers for use in coatings, inks, and cleaning products, subject to local regulations and formulation limits.
