Overview
Ethylhexyl cocoate (CAS 92044-87-6 ) is an ester derived from coconut fatty acids and 2-ethylhexyl alcohol, functioning as an emollient, carrier, and lubricant across personal care and industrial applications.
Its low viscosity and skin-compatible profile make it a practical alternative to mineral oil in cosmetic formulations. Procurement teams source it as a multifunctional base ingredient where lightweight skin feel is a priority.
In personal care, it is used in sunscreens, body oils, and leave-on skin care products as an emollient that improves texture and aids active ingredient delivery without a greasy residue.
Color cosmetics manufacturers incorporate it as a dispersing agent for pigments in foundations and lip products. In lubricant formulations, it functions as a bio-based base fluid or additive.
Low-toxicity and biodegradability are key procurement requirements for this material. Coatings and adhesive formulators use it as a plasticizing component and processing aid to improve flexibility.
Ethylhexyl cocoate is supplied as a clear, pale yellow liquid in drum and IBC quantities, with bulk tanker options available for larger industrial volumes. It is offered in cosmetic-grade specifications.
The material meets the purity requirements of major personal care markets. Technical-grade material is also available for industrial applications in coatings and lubricants to meet diverse needs.
