Polyglycerin-3

Polyglycerin-3 (CAS 56090-54-1 ), also known as Triglycerol, is a short-chain polyol derived from the controlled oligomerization of glycerol. It functions as a humectant, emulsifier, and solvent carrier across personal care, food, and industrial formulations.

In cosmetic and skincare formulations, it retains moisture in the skin barrier and improves the spreadability of emulsions, serums, and cleansing products. Food manufacturers use it as an emulsifier and humectant in baked goods.

It is frequently utilized in confectionery coatings and fat-based fillings where moisture retention and texture stability are priorities. In coatings and adhesive systems, it acts as a reactive diluent or plasticizing carrier.

This material improves flow and substrate compatibility in water-based formulations. Its low viscosity and hygroscopic character also make it a preferred co-solvent in sealant and elastomer systems requiring controlled flexibility.

Polyglycerin-3 is supplied as a clear, viscous liquid in drum and IBC quantities. Food-grade and cosmetic-grade specifications are the most commercially prevalent for global distribution and manufacturing needs.

Suppliers typically offer material conforming to FCC and COSMOS or Ecocert standards. Technical-grade material is available for industrial coating and adhesive applications requiring specific performance metrics.
