Description

Triundecanoin is a synthetic triglyceride composed of three undecanoic acid (C11:0) chains esterified to a glycerol backbone. This compound serves as a high-purity, well-defined standard and a versatile intermediate for advanced chemical synthesis and research. It is particularly valuable for industries requiring precise lipid structures, such as specialty chemicals, pharmaceutical research, and high-end personal care formulations.

Application

• As a reference standard and calibrant in analytical chemistry (e.g., GC, HPLC) for lipid analysis.
• As a key chemical intermediate in the synthesis of structured lipids and specialty esters.
• In pharmaceutical research for drug delivery systems and as a model compound for studying lipid metabolism.
• As a base material for high-performance lubricants and functional fluids.
• In the development of advanced cosmetic and personal care ingredients, such as emollients and texture enhancers.
• For academic and industrial R&D in biochemistry, nutrition, and material science.
