Used primarily as a plasticizer in polymers to improve flexibility and durability, and in coatings and adhesives to enhance low-temperature performance. Employed in the formulation of synthetic lubricants for improved viscosity and thermal stability. In the cosmetics and fragrance industry, it serves as a solvent, dispersant, and fixative due to its low volatility and mild, pleasant odor, helping to prolong product fragrance. Additionally, it acts as an intermediate in the synthesis of other chemicals for the pharmaceutical and plastics industries, contributing to flexibility and temperature resistance in final products. Its ester structure provides good solvency and compatibility with various organic matrices.
