  • Applications

    Selachyl alcohol (CAS 34783-94-3) is used primarily as an intermediate in the synthesis of fragrance materials and may serve as an odorant or fragrance ingredient in various formulations; in cosmetics and personal care, it can be used as a fragrance component or a solvent support for formulations; in industrial manufacturing, it often serves as a building block for the synthesis of fragrance compounds; in coatings and inks, it can function as a solvent or carrier in formulation systems; and in cleaning products, it may be integrated as a solvent or processing aid.
