  • Applications

    2-Decyltetradecyl laurate (CAS 27611-01-4) is a long-chain aliphatic ester widely used in cosmetics and personal care as an emollient and slip-enhancing ingredient in creams, lotions, and color cosmetics; it also serves as a solvent and carrier for fragrance materials in perfumery formulations. In polymer and plastics processing, it can function as a plasticizer and processing aid to improve flexibility and workability of nonpolar systems. In coatings and inks, it may be used as a lubricating additive to improve leveling, film formation, and gloss. In household products and cleaning formulations, it provides conditioning oil and solvent properties that aid spreading and texture. It is considered a lipophilic, non-volatile component whose role as a processing aid or solvent will depend on formulation, regulatory limits and regional requirements.
