Triisopalmitin

CAS: 68957-79-9

Overview

Triisopalmitin (CAS 68957-79-9 ), also known as Glycerol Triisopalmitate, is a triglyceride ester of isopalmitic acid and glycerol used across personal care, food, and industrial formulations.

It functions primarily as an emollient, lubricant, and emulsifier, providing skin-conditioning and texture-modifying performance in finished products. In personal care, it is used in skin creams and lotions.

It is also used in color cosmetics to deliver a smooth, non-greasy skin feel while improving spreadability and formulation stability. Food manufacturers incorporate it as a fat component or emulsifier.

This is particularly useful in specialty fat blends where controlled crystallization and texture are required. In lubricant formulations, its ester structure supports film formation and friction reduction.

This performance is ideal for light-duty or biodegradable lubricant systems. It also functions as a humectant carrier in leave-on cosmetic formats, helping to retain moisture at the skin surface.

Triisopalmitin is typically supplied as a liquid or low-viscosity oil at ambient temperature, suitable for direct incorporation into oil phases. It is available in cosmetic-grade and food-grade specs.

These options meet the purity requirements of personal care and food manufacturing applications. Bulk supply is standard in drums or intermediate bulk containers for various industrial uses.

Technical-grade material is also available for industrial lubricant use. This ensures versatility across different sectors requiring high-performance triglyceride esters for their specific needs.
