Ethylhexyl isopalmitate

CAS: 93843-32-4

Overview

Ethylhexyl isopalmitate (CAS 93843-32-4 ) is a branched-chain ester used as an emollient, carrier, and dispersing agent across personal care and industrial formulations. Its branched structure resists oxidation and delivers a dry, non-greasy skin feel.

Formulators specifically target this ingredient in leave-on cosmetic products to enhance texture. In skincare and color cosmetics, it functions as a lightweight emollient and pigment dispersant for various applications.

This material enables smooth application in foundations, sunscreens, and body lotions without the heavy residue of straight-chain esters. Hair care formulators incorporate it as a conditioning carrier that improves spreadability.

It is frequently utilized in serums and leave-in treatments to provide a superior finish. In industrial lubricant formulations, it serves as a base fluid or co-solvent where low viscosity and oxidative stability are required.

Metalworking fluid manufacturers use it as a non-staining carrier component in cutting and forming oils. Ethylhexyl isopalmitate is supplied as a clear, low-viscosity liquid for diverse manufacturing needs.

Cosmetic-grade material meeting standard industry purity specifications is the primary commercial form. Technical-grade options are also available for industrial lubricant applications and heavy-duty processing.

It is typically offered in drum and IBC quantities suited to both formulation-scale and bulk industrial procurement. This ensures reliable supply chains for manufacturers requiring consistent chemical performance.
