  • Applications

    4-Dodecylresorcinol (CAS 24305-56-4) is used as a chemical intermediate in organic synthesis and as a functional additive in polymer and coating formulations, where its phenolic structure provides antioxidant properties that help stabilize resins and plastics against oxidative degradation. It is also evaluated for cosmetic and personal-care applications as an antioxidant or active ingredient, and may serve as a precursor or building block for fragrance-related compounds in perfumery formulations. In addition, it can act as a synthetic building block in the manufacture of specialty chemicals for research and industrial use, subject to local regulations and formulation limits.
