  • Applications

    Methyl 9,10-dihydroxystearate (CAS 1115-01-1) is a fatty diol ester used as a biobased intermediate and additive in several industrial formulations. In cosmetics/personal care, it may function as an emollient and conditioning ester. In polymers/plastics, it serves as a diol component for polyurethane and polyester resins, enabling flexible networks and improved processability. In coatings and inks, it can act as a plasticizer or reactive diluent to modify resin properties. In adhesives, it may serve as a plasticizer/compatibilizer to improve flexibility and adhesion. In industrial manufacturing, it can be used as a lubricant additive or processing aid due to its long aliphatic chain and diol functionality.
