  • Applications

    Cyclohexyl myristate (CAS 93805-35-7) is used primarily in cosmetics and personal care as an emollient and solvent for creams, lotions, and makeup products; it serves as a fragrance ingredient and odor fixative in perfumery; in household products it functions as a fragrance carrier and solvent in cleaners, detergents, and laundry formulations; in the realm of polymers and coatings it can act as a plasticizer or processing aid to improve texture and handling of formulations; it may be used as a carrier for active ingredients or fragrance compounds in industrial formulations, depending on regulatory limits.
