  • Applications

    Tetradecyl heptanoate (CAS 29710-33-6) is a long-chain fatty ester commonly used as an emollient and conditioning agent in cosmetics and personal care, providing slip and a soft, non-greasy feel in lotions, creams, and hair-care products, and often serving as a carrier solvent for fragrances and actives. It is also used as a plasticizer and processing aid for polymers and plastics, helping to improve flexibility and processing characteristics in certain resin systems, coatings, inks, and adhesives. Additionally, it can function as a lubricant or slip additive in industrial formulations and as a lipophilic solvent or diluent in specialized cleaning and formulation processes, subject to local regulations and formulation limits.
