Description

Oleyl 4-(Dimethylamino)Benzoate is a specialized organic ester compound derived from oleyl alcohol and 4-(dimethylamino)benzoic acid. This chemical is valued for its unique combination of a long hydrophobic oleyl chain and a UV-absorbing dimethylaminobenzoate moiety, making it a versatile functional ingredient. It is primarily sought after by formulators in the personal care, cosmetic, and specialty chemical industries for its light-filtering and conditioning properties.

Application

• UV Filter / Sunscreen Agent: Acts as a liquid organic UV-A filter in sunscreen formulations, lotions, and daily wear cosmetics.
• Skin Care & Cosmetic Formulations: Used in anti-aging creams, moisturizers, and serums for its potential skin-conditioning benefits and light stability.
• Hair Care Products: Incorporated into hair dyes, conditioners, and styling products to provide UV protection for hair and enhance product spreadability.
• Polymer & Coating Additive: Serves as a light stabilizer or processing aid in specialty polymer systems and protective coatings.
• Industrial Photoinitiator Component: Can be utilized in the synthesis or formulation of photoinitiators for UV-curable inks, adhesives, and resins.
• Research & Development: Employed in chemical synthesis and material science research as a building block or model compound.
