  • Applications

    5-Tridecanol (CAS 58783-82-7) is a long-chain fatty alcohol commonly used as an intermediate for fragrance ester synthesis and cosmetic ingredient development, contributing to scent profiles and formulation performance; it can function as a nonionic surfactant or co-surfactant in household and industrial cleaners; it serves as an emollient and conditioning agent in cosmetics and personal care products; it acts as a plasticizer or lubricity-enhancing additive in polymers, coatings and inks; it is employed as a processing solvent or carrier in industrial manufacturing, with potential use as a building block for specialty esters in coatings and adhesives, and is subject to local regulations and formulation limits.
