Description

Arachidic Acid Oleoyl Ester Crystalline is a high-purity, long-chain fatty acid ester derived from arachidic (eicosanoic) and oleic acids. This compound is valued for its excellent lubricity, stability, and hydrophobic properties, making it a versatile intermediate and functional additive. It is primarily used by manufacturers in the cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and specialty lubricants industries seeking high-performance, bio-based ingredients.

Application

• As a high-grade emollient and skin-conditioning agent in premium cosmetic and personal care formulations.
• As a lubricant and release agent in pharmaceutical tablet manufacturing and capsule production.
• As a key intermediate for synthesizing specialty surfactants and esters with tailored hydrophilic-lipophilic balance (HLB).
• As a plasticizer and processing aid for specific polymers and resins to improve flexibility and mold release.
• As a component in high-performance lubricants and greases for industrial and precision mechanical applications.
• In research and development as a standard or reagent for lipid chemistry studies and analytical method development.
