  • Applications

    9-Decenyl benzoate (CAS 94108-33-5) is commonly used as a fragrance ingredient and fixative in perfumery, helping stabilize and extend aroma notes; in cosmetics and personal care it can function as an emollient and fragrance carrier. It may be employed as a solvent or plasticizer in coatings, inks, and polymer formulations, and can act as a plasticizer or tackifier in plastics and adhesives. It is also encountered in household products and cleaners as a fragrance carrier or processing aid where mild solvent properties are relevant.
