  • Applications

    3-Tridecanol (CAS 10289-68-6) is a long-chain fatty alcohol used primarily as an emollient and solvent in cosmetics and personal care formulations; it serves as a precursor for nonionic surfactants and esters used in household cleaners and detergents; in industrial manufacturing it can function as a processing aid and lubricant and as a building block for plasticizers and polymer esters; in coatings and inks it may be used as a solvent or processing aid to modulate flow and film formation; in perfumery it is often evaluated as a fragrance carrier or fixative in certain formulations.
