  • Applications

    1,2-Decanediol (CAS 1119-86-4) is a long-chain diol used primarily as an intermediate and solvent in chemical manufacturing; in cosmetics and personal care, it is valued as a humectant/emollient and can serve as a solvent or carrier for active ingredients in skin care formulations; in fragrance and flavor applications, it can function as a solvent carrier for fragrance oils; in industrial manufacturing, it acts as a building block for polymers such as polyesters and polyurethanes and can be used as a crosslinking agent or co-solvent for coatings, varnishes, and adhesives; in coatings and inks, it can operate as a reactive diluent/solvent to adjust rheology; and in cleaning and other industrial formulations, it is used as a solvent or processing aid.
