  • Applications

    9-Octadecenoic acid, 12-(acetyloxy)-, butyl ester, (9Z,12R)- (140-04-5) is primarily used as an emollient and solvent component in cosmetics and personal care, contributing to skin and hair conditioning in creams, lotions, and hair-care formulations. It also serves as a plasticizer and processing aid in polymers, coatings, inks, and adhesives, helping to modulate flexibility and compatibility. In perfumery, it can act as a fragrance ingredient or a precursor for ester fragrance compounds, and may function as a fragrance fixative in formulations. As a long-chain ester, it may be evaluated as a lubricant additive or processing aid in industrial manufacturing. Formulation considerations and regulatory constraints apply, so usage should be aligned with local regulations and formulation limits.
