Description

Dipropylene Glycol Dipelargonate is a synthetic ester derived from dipropylene glycol and pelargonic acid, valued for its excellent emolliency, lubricity, and solvency properties. This versatile chemical intermediate is crucial for formulators seeking a stable, low-volatility, and skin-friendly ingredient. It is primarily needed by manufacturers in the personal care, cosmetics, and industrial lubricant sectors for creating high-performance end products.

Application

• Personal Care & Cosmetics: Acts as a premium emollient and skin-conditioning agent in creams, lotions, sunscreens, and makeup products.
• Plasticizer & Lubricant: Used as a secondary plasticizer and lubricant in polymer processing and specialty industrial lubricant formulations.
• Solvent & Carrier: Serves as a solvent for active ingredients and a carrier fluid in various chemical and agrochemical applications.
• Textile Processing: Functions as a softening agent and lubricant in fiber and yarn treatment processes.
• Metalworking Fluids: Incorporated as a lubricity additive and corrosion inhibitor in synthetic and semi-synthetic metalworking fluids.
• Industrial Cleaners: Used as a coupling agent and solvent in heavy-duty degreasers and industrial cleaning formulations.

Quality Control

Our Dipropylene Glycol Dipelargonate is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure it meets precise specifications for identity, purity, and performance. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting key parameters such as assay, acid value, and color are available upon request to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from strong alkalis and organic solvents. Recommended storage temperature is between 15°C and 25°C (59°F and 77°F). Keep container tightly sealed when not in use to prevent moisture absorption.
