  • Applications

    Dibenzyl sebacate (CAS 140-24-9) is used primarily as a non-phthalate plasticizer for PVC and other polymers, enabling greater flexibility and processability in coatings, adhesives, and resin formulations; it also serves as a solvent and fragrance carrier in perfumery, functioning as a fixative to help prolong aroma. In cosmetics and personal care, it acts as an emollient and solvent in formulations such as creams, lotions, and color cosmetics. In coatings and inks, it provides plasticizing and processing aid properties to improve flow, compatibility, and the flexibility of the final film.
