  • Applications

    (13Z)-octadecen-1-ol is commonly used as an emollient and solvent in cosmetics and personal care, providing skin conditioning and enabling formulations with creamy textures; it also serves as a solvent and carrier in perfumery to dissolve and stabilize fragrance ingredients; in coatings and plastics, it acts as a plasticizer and processing aid, improving flexibility and handling of paints, varnishes, and vinyl resins; it is a precursor for ester derivatives (such as oleates) used as lubricants or specialty esters in industrial formulations; in household cleaning and maintenance products, it can function as a solvent and softening agent; in pharmaceuticals, it may be employed as an excipient or solvent in topical formulations, subject to local regulations and formulation limits.
