  • Applications

    Tridecyl Stearate (31556-45-3) is a fatty acid ester primarily used as an emollient oil in cosmetics and personal care formulations, delivering a smooth feel and a lightweight film on the skin. It is commonly employed as a carrier or solvent for fragrance oils in perfumery and fragrance formulations. In coatings, inks, and polymer formulations, it can act as a plasticizer or processing aid to improve processing and tactile properties. It may also function as an emollient or conditioning ingredient in household cleaning and care products, and as a lubricating oil or slip agent in industrial manufacturing. It can serve as an intermediate or processing aid in chemical synthesis.
