  • Applications

    cis-6-tetradecene is a nonpolar internal olefin that serves mainly as a chemical intermediate and building block in hydrocarbon-based syntheses (CAS 41446-61-1). It may be used as a feedstock for the production of higher-value polymers and waxes, as a precursor for fragrance and cosmetic ingredients via selective functionalization, and as a nonpolar solvent or diluent in coatings, cleaners, and personal-care formulations. In polymer and plastics processing, it can function as a potential comonomer or processing aid to tailor rheology and compatibility. It can be hydrogenated to give saturated hydrocarbons or transformed into oxygenated derivatives (e.g., esters, alcohols) for lubricants, plasticizers, or specialty chemicals. Its use is typically subject to local regulations and formulation limits.
