  • Applications

    Ethyl tetradec-2-enoate (CAS 38112-60-6) is a long-chain unsaturated ester that is commonly evaluated as a synthetic intermediate and a formulation component. It may serve as a monomer or co-monomer in unsaturated polyester resins and related specialty polymers for coatings and composites, and can function as a plasticizer or flexibilizing agent in polymer systems. In fragrance and cosmetics, it is considered as a fragrance ingredient or carrier/emollient. In coatings and inks, it can act as a resin modifier or reactive diluent for solvent-borne or UV-curable systems. In cleaning and industrial formulations, it may be employed as a solvent component or carrier for active ingredients. All uses are subject to local regulations and formulation limits.
