Description

Arachidyl Erucate is a high-purity, long-chain fatty acid ester derived from erucyl alcohol and arachidic acid. This specialty ester is valued for its exceptional lubricity, oxidative stability, and compatibility with a wide range of formulations, making it a superior emollient and conditioning agent. It is primarily sought after by manufacturers in the personal care, cosmetics, and high-performance lubricant industries seeking to enhance product texture, stability, and performance.

Application

• Premium Skin Care & Cosmetics: Acts as a non-greasy, highly stable emollient and skin-conditioning agent in creams, lotions, and sunscreens.
• Hair Care Formulations: Provides excellent slip and conditioning properties in shampoos, conditioners, and hair serums.
• High-Performance Lubricants: Used as a base fluid or additive in synthetic lubricants and metalworking fluids requiring high thermal and oxidative stability.
• Plasticizer & Processing Aid: Improves flexibility and processability in polymer and resin applications.
• Textile & Fiber Lubrication: Serves as a spin finish and lubricant for synthetic fibers to reduce friction and static.
• Industrial Release Agents: Formulated into mold release agents for plastics, rubber, and composite materials.
