Application

Isoamyl Laurate is commonly employed as an emollient and skin-conditioning agent in cosmetic formulations, providing a smooth, non-greasy texture. In industrial applications, it serves as a lubricant additive or plasticizer due to its low viscosity and thermal stability. Researchers also utilize it as a solvent or intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in esterification and transesterification reactions. Its compatibility with hydrophobic systems makes it valuable in coatings and specialty chemical development.
