  • Applications

    Benzyl octyl ether (CAS 54852-64-1) is primarily used as a fragrance ingredient and solvent in perfumery and cosmetics, functioning as a fixative to help extend the scent and as a solvent for fragrance materials in personal care products; it is also employed as a fragrance solvent in household products and cleaners. In industrial manufacturing, it can serve as a processing solvent and additive for coatings and inks, and may be used as an intermediate or solvent in organic synthesis. Additional applications may include use in polymer formulations as a solvent or processing aid to improve dissolution and dispersion of fragrance components.
