  • Applications

    1H-Imidazole-1-ethanol, 4,5-dihydro-2-tridecyl- (CAS 6942-02-5) is used as an intermediate and specialty additive with applications across several industries. In practice, it is commonly evaluated as a surfactant and dispersant in detergents, cleaners, cosmetics, and coatings; as an adhesion promoter or processing aid in paints, inks, and polymer formulations; as a catalyst- or stabilizer-related component in polyurethane and epoxy systems; as an intermediate in the synthesis of imidazole-containing active pharmaceutical ingredients; and may serve as a fragrance component or fixative in perfumery. It can also function as a solvent or co-solvent in certain cleaning formulations and metalworking fluids, subject to formulation constraints and local regulations.
