Description

Triglycerol Caprylate is a high-purity, non-ionic surfactant and emulsifier derived from glycerin and caprylic acid. This versatile compound is valued for its excellent solubilizing properties, mildness, and stability in a wide range of formulations. It serves as a critical functional ingredient for manufacturers in the personal care, cosmetics, and pharmaceutical industries seeking effective, skin-friendly components.

Application

• Cosmetic & Personal Care Formulations: Acts as a primary emulsifier, solubilizer, and co-emulsifier in creams, lotions, serums, and sun care products.
• Pharmaceutical Excipient: Used as a non-irritating solubilizer for active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) in topical and transdermal drug delivery systems.
• Food-Grade Emulsifier: Employed in food applications where a mild, effective emulsifying agent is required, though specific food-grade certification should be verified.
• Industrial Applications: Functions as a dispersing agent, lubricant, or intermediate in various specialty chemical and industrial processes.
• Cleaning & Detergent Formulations: Serves as a surfactant in mild, high-performance cleaning products for home and institutional use.

Quality Control

Our Triglycerol Caprylate 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 saponification value 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 at room temperature (15-25°C). As this material is easily oxidized, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) for long-term preservation and to minimize degradation. Keep away from strong oxidizing agents.
