Isotridecyl C16-18 fatty acids esters

Isotridecyl C16-18 fatty acids esters (CAS 95912-88-2), commercially available as Radia 7513, is a synthetic ester produced from isotridecanol and C16-18 fatty acids. It functions as a lubricant base fluid and plasticizer across industrial formulations.

This chemical is preferred where oxidative stability and low volatility are procurement priorities. In metalworking and industrial lubrication, it serves as a base or co-base fluid in cutting fluids, hydraulic oils, and gear lubricants.

The ester is highly valued in applications where biodegradability and thermal stability are required. Coatings formulators incorporate it as a plasticizing additive to improve film flexibility and substrate adhesion without compromising durability.

In adhesives and sealants, it acts as a softener to adjust rheology and extend open time in both hot-melt and solvent-based systems. Polymer and elastomer compounders use it to improve processability and flexibility in PVC and rubber compounds.

Isotridecyl C16-18 fatty acids esters is supplied as a clear liquid. It is available in technical grade, the standard specification for industrial lubricant, coatings, and polymer applications.

Bulk supply is typical in drums and IBC containers, with tanker quantities available for large-volume industrial buyers. This product ensures consistent performance across a wide range of demanding industrial manufacturing environments.
