  • Applications

    Decyl (R)-12-hydroxyoleate (CAS 93980-67-7) is used as an ester of a fatty acid bearing a hydroxy group and a decyl moiety, commonly functioning as a nonionic surfactant and emollient in cosmetic and personal care formulations. In industry, it can serve as an intermediate in the synthesis of specialty esters for lubricants and polymer additives. It also can act as a plasticizer or lubricant additive in polymers and coatings to improve processability and flexibility. In coatings and inks, it may function as a surfactant or flow modifier to enhance spreading and gloss. In household formulations and cleaning products, it may appear as a mild surfactant/emollient component, contributing to cleaning performance while maintaining skin friendliness.
