  • Applications

    Celerin (CAS 73815-20-0) is used as an intermediate in the synthesis of specialty chemicals and may function as a solvent or processing aid in industrial manufacturing. It may also be employed as an odorant or fixative component in fragrance formulations, and can act as a stabilizer or plasticizer in certain polymer systems. Additionally, it can serve as a surfactant or chelating agent in cleaning formulations, and is sometimes evaluated for use in coatings and inks.
