  • Applications

    Myreth-3 laurate (CAS 84605-13-0) is commonly used as an emollient and solvent in cosmetics and personal care formulations (creams, lotions, makeup). It also serves as a fragrance carrier or solvent for actives in perfumery and cosmetic formulations. Additionally, as a fatty ester, it may function as a slip agent or softener in coatings, inks, and adhesives, as well as in polymer systems. It is sometimes used in household cleaning products to improve feel and glide on surfaces. In industrial manufacturing and plastics processing, it may be considered a processing aid or plasticizer-like additive in formulations.
