Tridecyl Ethylhexanoate

Tridecyl Ethylhexanoate (CAS 125804-07-1), also known as Tridecyl 2-ethylhexanoate, is a synthetic ester used as a lubricant and plasticizer in industrial formulations.

Where is Tridecyl Ethylhexanoate used?

• Metalworking and industrial lubricants: base fluid or additive in cutting oils, rolling fluids and release agents
• Coatings and sealants: improves flexibility and substrate adhesion in films
• Plastics processing: secondary plasticizer enhancing softness and workability of polymer compounds
• Adhesives: adjusts tack and flow in hot-melt and solvent-based systems
• It delivers low-viscosity lubrication and polymer softening without volatility concerns.

Commercial specifications

• Bulk supply in drums and IBC containers
