  • Applications

    2-(p-Tolyloxy)ethyl acetate (CAS 6807-11-0) is used as a solvent and processing aid in coatings, inks, adhesives, and polymer formulations, helping dissolve resins and enable film formation; it can serve as a fragrance intermediate in perfumery and personal care applications, leveraging its aromatic p-tolyl moiety; it may function as a solvent carrier for actives and fragrance components in cosmetics and household cleaning products; in polymers and plastics it may act as a plasticizer or processing aid to improve flexibility and processability; use is typically evaluated on a project basis and is subject to local regulations and formulation limits.
