Ethyl decanoate

Ethyl decanoate ( CAS 110-38-3 ), also known by its FEMA 2432 designation and commercially as ethyl caprate, is a fatty acid ester used across food flavoring, personal care, and industrial lubrication applications.

It delivers a characteristic fruity, brandy-like aroma profile that drives its demand in flavor and fragrance formulation. In food and beverage production, ethyl caprate is used as a flavoring agent in spirits and wines.

It contributes grape and cognac notes at low use levels in fruit-based products. Personal care formulators incorporate it as an emollient ester and emulsifier in skin creams, hair conditioners, and cosmetic oils.

Its skin-feel and dispersing properties support finished product texture in various formulations. In lubricant formulations, it functions as a base fluid or additive component in specialty and biodegradable lubricants.

Ester-based fluids are often preferred for these specific industrial needs. Metalworking applications also draw on its lubricity and compatibility with other ester blends for cutting and processing fluids.

Ethyl decanoate is supplied as a clear, mobile liquid in drum and IBC quantities suited to industrial and commercial buyers. Food-grade material conforming to FEMA standards is the most commonly traded specification.

Technical-grade product is available for lubricant and industrial end uses. This versatile chemical serves a wide range of sectors from high-end cosmetics to heavy-duty industrial manufacturing processes.
