  • Applications

    Decyltetradecanol (CAS 58670-89-6) is a long-chain fatty alcohol primarily used in cosmetics and personal care as an emollient, thickener, and lubricant-like additive; it also serves as a co-surfactant and a light solvent in household and cleaning formulations. In perfumery, it can act as a fixative or carrier for volatile fragrance components. In coatings, inks, and other finishes, it is used as a waxy constituent to adjust gloss and film-forming properties. In polymers/plastics and industrial manufacturing, it commonly functions as a processing aid and a wax-like additive to improve processing behavior and longevity of plastic or rubber systems.
