  • Applications

    3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)propyl Acetate (CAS 80373-18-8) is primarily used as a fragrance ingredient and fragrance intermediate in perfumery and cosmetics, contributing aroma notes and serving as a synthetic building block for related scent compounds. It may also be employed in household products such as cleaners and air fresheners as a scent component. In coatings and inks, it can function as a specialty additive or precursor for aroma-related formulations and resin synthesis. It can serve as an intermediate in the synthesis of specialty polymers or plastic formulations, where the phenylpropyl ester core enables further functionalization. Its use is typically formulation- and regulation-dependent.
