  • Applications

    Propylene Glycol Dipelargonate is commonly used as an emollient and solvent in cosmetics and personal care formulations, aiding in solubilizing fragrance oils and active ingredients while conditioning the skin. It also serves as a fragrance solvent and vehicle in perfumery applications, helping deliver and stabilize fragrance components. In polymers and coatings, it functions as a plasticizer and processing aid to improve flexibility and flow, and in adhesives or inks as a compatible carrier. It may also act as a co-solvent or carrier in household and cleaning products, supporting formulation stability. All uses are subject to local regulations and formulation limits. CAS number: 41395-83-9.
