  • Applications

    Furfuryl decanoate (CAS 39252-05-6) is an ester commonly used as an odorant and fixative in fragrance and cosmetics applications, providing furfuryl and caramel-like notes and helping to extend scent longevity on skin or textiles. It is used in perfumes and personal care products to enhance scent complexity and stability. In household and cleaning products, it can serve as a fragrance ingredient in air fresheners, detergents, and cleaners. In industrial coatings and inks, furfuryl decanoate may be used as a fragrance additive to impart a distinctive aroma to finished products. Applications are subject to local regulations and formulation limits.
