  • Applications

    11-Methyldodecyl laurate (CAS 94134-83-5) is a branched fatty ester primarily used as an emollient and solvent in cosmetics and personal care, delivering skin and hair conditioning and a pleasant feel in lotions, creams, and hair-care formulations. It can function as a carrier or solvent for fragrances and cosmetic actives in fragrance/beauty product formulations. In household products, it serves as a conditioning additive and helps improve slip in cleaners and detergents. In polymers and coatings, it can act as a plasticizer and processing aid to enhance flexibility and processability of waxy polymers and coating systems. It may also be used as an intermediate in the synthesis of other specialty esters and as a lubricant in coatings and inks.
