Description

1,2,3-Propanetriyl Tris(2-Hexyldecanoate) is a high-purity synthetic ester derived from glycerol and branched-chain fatty acids. This compound serves as a premium-grade emollient and solvent, valued for its exceptional oxidative stability and low volatility. It is a critical ingredient for formulators in the personal care, cosmetics, and specialty lubricants industries seeking high-performance, skin-compatible ingredients.

Application

• Cosmetic & Personal Care Formulations: Acts as a superior, non-greasy emollient and solvent in skin creams, lotions, sunscreens, and makeup products.
• Pharmaceutical Excipient: Used as a solubilizer and carrier for active pharmaceutical ingredients in topical and transdermal delivery systems.
• High-Performance Lubricants: Serves as a base oil or additive in synthetic lubricants and greases requiring excellent thermal stability and low-temperature fluidity.
• Plasticizer: Functions as a secondary plasticizer in polymer applications, including PVC and synthetic rubbers, to improve flexibility and processing.
• Industrial Solvent & Carrier: Employed as a solvent for resins, dyes, and pigments in coatings, inks, and specialty cleaning formulations.
• Food Contact Applications: Suitable for use in lubricants and release agents for machinery in food processing where incidental contact is possible.
