  • Applications

    Pongamol (CAS 484-33-3) is a natural phenolic compound considered as an intermediate in organic synthesis and the development of flavonoid derivatives. It is evaluated as a stabilizer/antioxidant for polymers, resins, and coatings. In cosmetics and personal care, Pongamol is studied as a natural additive with antioxidant activity and potential as a fragrance-related ingredient. In the coatings, inks, and plastics sector, it may serve as a stabilizing additive or a precursor for phenol-based systems. Research also regards Pongamol as a potential starting point for pharmaceutical applications and the development of bio-based compounds from natural sources.
