Description

Fatty Acids, (C=14~18) And (C=16~22)-Unsatd., 2-Octyldodecyl Esters is a high-purity, synthetic ester blend derived from unsaturated fatty acids and a branched-chain alcohol, designed to deliver exceptional oxidative stability and lubricity. This product is engineered to provide a consistent, low-odor, and non-greasy emollient for demanding industrial and personal care formulations. It is a critical raw material for manufacturers in the cosmetics, lubricants, and polymer processing industries seeking superior performance and supply chain reliability.

Application

• Cosmetic & Personal Care: Acts as a premium emollient and skin-conditioning agent in creams, lotions, sunscreens, and lipsticks, providing a smooth, non-tacky feel.
• Lubricant & Metalworking Fluids: Serves as a synthetic base oil or additive, offering excellent lubricity, thermal stability, and corrosion protection.
• Polymer & Plastic Additives: Functions as an internal or external lubricant and plasticizer in PVC, engineering plastics, and synthetic rubber processing.
• Industrial Coatings & Inks: Used as a leveling agent and viscosity modifier to enhance flow, gloss, and substrate wetting.
• Textile & Leather Processing: Employed as a softening and lubricating agent for fibers, yarns, and finished leather goods.
• Adhesives & Sealants: Imparts flexibility and improves workability as a plasticizing co-agent in various adhesive systems.
