Application

Dimethyl succinate is a versatile compound known for its pleasant, ethereal odor and presence as a natural component in fried hazelnuts. It serves a wide range of purposes due to its properties as a low-odor, low-volatility, and biodegradable ester. In industrial applications, dimethyl succinate functions as a solvent for paints, varnishes, dyes, and photography materials, as well as a component in paint additives, coating additives, and viscosity adjustors. It plays a role in the production of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and other organic compounds, as well as serving as an intermediate in various chemical processes. Additionally, its ability to act as a surfactant despite being slightly water-soluble makes it suitable for use in water-based systems. Beyond its industrial usage, it is employed as a flavoring agent and finds applications in perfumery and personal care products, contributing as a skin-conditioning agent and emollient.
