Description

Glycerol, Decamer, Deca(Octadeca-9,12-Dienoate) is a high-purity, fully esterified polyglycerol derivative of linoleic acid. This specialized compound offers unique properties as a high-molecular-weight, lipophilic ester, making it valuable for advanced formulations requiring enhanced stability and specific rheological characteristics. It is primarily utilized by manufacturers in the cosmetics, personal care, and specialty lubricant industries seeking sophisticated multifunctional ingredients.

Application

• Cosmetic & Personal Care Formulations: Acts as a high-performance emollient, skin-conditioning agent, and viscosity modifier in creams, lotions, and makeup products.
• Specialty Lubricants & Release Agents: Serves as a base or additive in food-grade and biodegradable lubricants, mold release agents, and anti-stick coatings.
• Polymer & Resin Modification: Used as a plasticizer or compatibilizer to improve the flexibility and processing of certain polymers and resins.
• Surface Coatings: Functions as a component in specialty coatings to enhance gloss, adhesion, and water resistance.
• Pharmaceutical Excipients: Potential use as a non-aqueous solvent or carrier in topical and transdermal drug delivery systems.
• Food Additive (where compliant): Can be employed as an emulsifier or stabilizer in specific food-grade applications, subject to regulatory approval.
