Applications
2-Phenoxyethyl benzoate is commonly used as a fragrance solvent and fixative in perfumery, helping to extend and stabilize scent. It also serves as a carrier for fragrance compounds in cosmetics and personal care products, and acts as a fragrance solvent in household cleaners and air fresheners. In coatings, inks, and adhesives, it functions as a processing solvent and can act as a plasticizer for certain polymers and resin systems. In addition, it is used as a solvent for resin-based formulations and can serve as a processing aid in coatings and adhesives.
