Abstract: C12-15 Alkyl Benzoates that are made at least in part from natural sources, e.g., from various plant based alkyl compounds having chain lengths in the range of 12 to 15 carbon atoms, e.g., palm-based C12 compounds, that are useful for a full array of cosmetic uses, including in all known uses for known C12-15 Alkyl Benzoates, which C12-15 Alkyl Benzoates provide a large number of advantages over known products in the art, including costs savings as well as providing a more natural product, which would be more desirable especially in the fields of uses of cosmetics, and beauty and/or body care products as well as in fragrances, where naturally sourced materials are typically highly valued by customers.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates, according to some embodiments, to molecules, including substituted propenoic amides (e.g., aryl substituted propenoic amides), that may receive excited state energy from light-absorbing molecules. According to some embodiments, the present disclosure relates to molecules, including substituted propenoic amides (e.g., aryl substituted propenoic amides), that may quench, dissipate, and/or otherwise resolve excited state energy (e.g., as heat).
