Description

Glyceryl Pentadecanoate is a specialized ester compound derived from glycerol and pentadecanoic acid, identified by CAS NO 122636-37-7. This high-purity chemical serves as a critical intermediate and functional ingredient, offering excellent stability and compatibility for advanced formulations. It is essential for manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and specialty chemical industries seeking reliable, high-quality raw materials for research and production.

Application

Glyceryl Pentadecanoate is valued for its unique properties as a non-ionic surfactant and emollient ester. Its primary applications include:

• Pharmaceutical Excipient: Used as a solubilizer, bioavailability enhancer, and carrier in lipid-based drug delivery systems (e.g., SNEDDS, SMEDDS).
• Cosmetic & Personal Care: Functions as a premium skin-conditioning agent, emollient, and texture enhancer in creams, lotions, and sunscreens.
• Specialty Lubricants: Serves as a base or additive in high-performance synthetic lubricants and release agents.
• Food-Grade Additives: Potential use as an emulsifier or stabilizer in food contact applications, subject to specific regulatory compliance.
• Chemical Synthesis: Acts as a versatile building block or intermediate for synthesizing more complex esters and surfactants.
• Research & Development: A key reference standard and reagent in analytical chemistry and metabolic studies.
