Applications
2-Phenoxyethyl formate is commonly used as an odorant and solvent carrier in perfumery and cosmetics, and can serve as a fixative to help stabilize fragrance systems. It may function as a processing solvent or intermediate in industrial manufacturing, including coatings, inks, and adhesives, and can act as a plasticizer or formulation aid in polymer materials. Additional applications include serving as a fragrance solvent for household products such as cleaners and air fresheners, with use governed by local regulations and formulation limits.
