  • Applications

    Decyl hexyl adipate (CAS 22707-35-3) is primarily used as a plasticizer and processing solvent in a range of materials. In cosmetics and personal care, it acts as an emollient and solvent, improving spreadability and skin feel. In polymers and plastics, it serves as a flexibilizing plasticizer for PVC and other polymer systems. In coatings and inks, it functions as a plasticizer/processing aid to enhance film formation and gloss. In adhesives, it is added to modify tack and flexibility of the bond. In fragrance formulations, it is used as a solvent and carrier for fragrance ingredients. Its use is generally formulation-dependent and subject to local regulations and limits.
