  • Applications

    Decyl Gallate (CAS 19198-75-5) is a lipophilic gallic ester used primarily as an antioxidant and stabilizer across multiple industries: in cosmetics/personal care to protect oils and emulsions from oxidation; in plastics and rubber to slow oxidative and thermal degradation; in coatings and inks to improve aging resistance and color stability; in lubricants and industrial oils to prevent oxidation and varnish formation; and in household products to stabilize formulations and extend product shelf life. Its use is typically as an antioxidant additive and stabilizer, and specific applications may be subject to local regulations and formulation limits.
