  • Applications

    Doristerol (CAS 566-99-4) has multiple practical applications across several industries: in cosmetics/personal care as a skin-conditioning emollient; commonly evaluated as an intermediate in steroid synthesis for pharmaceutical applications; used as an additive in polymers/plastics where it can function as a stabilizer and/or plasticizer or processing aid; and may serve as a wax-like component or rheology modifier in coatings and inks to improve surface properties.
