  • Applications

    Tetradecyl isononanoate (CAS 84777-62-8) is a long-chain ester widely used in cosmetics and personal care as an emollient and solvent, providing slip and a light, non-greasy feel in creams, lotions, lip products, and hair-care formulations. It also serves as a carrier for fragrances and other actives, helping to solubilize and deliver ingredients in topical formulations. In perfumery, it can act as a fragrance solvent carrier with minimal odor impact. In industrial manufacturing, it may function as a plasticizer or processing aid for polymers and coatings, improving handling and application properties as a lubricating additive. Overall, it is commonly used as an emollient, solvent/carrier, and processing aid across cosmetic, fragrance, and polymer/coatings applications, subject to regulatory and formulation limits.
