  • Applications

    Methyl tetradec-5-enoate (CAS 28369-26-8) is primarily used as an intermediate in organic synthesis and as a reactive monomer precursor for specialty polymers. In perfumery and cosmetics, it may serve as a fragrance component or ester that contributes to formulation profiles. In coatings and inks, it can act as a monomer or reactive diluent for UV-curable systems and ester-based coatings. In general industrial manufacturing, it is evaluated as a building block for longer-chain esters and other derivatizations. It may also function as a solvent or processing aid in certain formulations, subject to regulatory and formulation constraints.
