  • Applications

    2-[2-[2-[2-(16-Methylheptadecanoyloxy)ethoxy]ethoxy]ethoxy]ethyl 17-methyloctadecanoate (CAS 36493-25-1) is primarily used as a nonionic surfactant/emulsifier and emollient in cosmetic and personal-care formulations. It can also serve as a processing aid or plasticizer in polymer formulations and coatings, improving workability and compatibility of systems containing long-chain fatty esters. In household and cleaning products, it acts as a surfactant additive and emulsifier to help solubilize oily soils. It may function as a lubricating or release agent in industrial manufacturing and as an intermediate for the synthesis of more specialized esters or surfactants. The exact use is formulation-dependent and subject to local regulations and limits.
