Dimethyl sebacate

Dimethyl sebacate (CAS 106-79-6), also known as DMS, is a dibasic ester derived from sebacic acid used as a plasticizer, lubricant base fluid, and emollient across multiple industrial sectors. Dimethyl decanedioate is a recognized alternative name in polymer and lubricant sourcing contexts. Its low volatility and thermal stability make it a practical choice for demanding formulation and processing environments.

In plastics and polymer processing, DMS functions as a plasticizer for PVC, cellulosics, and synthetic resins, improving flexibility and processing characteristics in finished films and coatings. Lubricant formulators use it as a base fluid or co-fluid in synthetic lubricants and metalworking fluids where oxidative stability at elevated temperatures is a requirement for industrial use.

In personal care, it acts as an emollient and skin-conditioning agent in creams, serums, and color cosmetics, providing a lightweight, non-greasy skin feel for high-end consumer products. At flavor-grade purity, it contributes fruity and fatty notes to food and beverage formulations. Dimethyl sebacate is supplied as a clear, low-viscosity liquid in drum and IBC quantities.

Standard grades include technical and high-purity options, with food- and flavor-grade material available for regulated applications. Specifications are typically aligned with FCC purity benchmarks. Depending on the intended end use, our material meets rigorous quality controls. This ensures consistent performance across automotive, cosmetic, and food manufacturing supply chains globally.
