Isopropyl benzoate

Isopropyl benzoate (CAS 939-48-0 ), also recognized under FEMA 2932 , is a benzoic acid ester used as a solvent, carrier, and flavoring agent across cosmetic and industrial applications.

Its low viscosity and good solvency make it a practical choice for formulators working with resins, pigments, and fragrance concentrates. In personal care and cosmetics, it functions as an emollient carrier.

It acts as a solvent for active ingredients, pigments, and UV filters in skin-feel formulations such as lotions, serums, and color cosmetics. Fragrance and flavor manufacturers use it as a fixative.

This chemical serves as a carrier solvent to improve the stability and dispersion of aroma compounds in finished products. In printing inks and packaging coatings, it dissolves resins and pigment dispersions.

The compound contributes to flow control and film formation in industrial coatings. Its FEMA-approved status supports use as a flavoring ingredient in food-grade applications where benzoate esters are appropriate.

Isopropyl benzoate is supplied as a clear liquid in drum and IBC quantities suited to industrial and cosmetic manufacturing volumes. It is available in cosmetic-grade and technical-grade specifications.

Fragrance and flavor applications typically require higher purity documentation aligned with FEMA or IFRA standards. This ensures the product meets the necessary safety and quality benchmarks for global distribution.
