Description

Behenyl Benzoate is a high-purity, long-chain ester derived from behenyl alcohol and benzoic acid, valued for its exceptional emollient and skin-conditioning properties. This versatile ingredient acts as a non-greasy, non-occlusive emollient, providing a smooth, silky after-feel and enhancing the spreadability of formulations. It is a critical raw material for manufacturers in the personal care and cosmetic industries seeking to create premium skin creams, lotions, sunscreens, and color cosmetics with superior sensory profiles and stability.
