  • Applications

    2,3-Dihydroxypropyl 12-hydroxy-9-octadecenoate (CAS 141-08-2) is a fatty acid ester derived from ricinoleic acid with a 2,3-dihydroxypropyl moiety. In industrial use, it functions as a nonionic surfactant and emulsifier in cosmetics and personal care formulations, in household cleaners and cleaning products, as a plasticizer or processing aid for polymers and coatings, as an intermediate for synthesizing other ricinoleate derivatives in industrial formulations, and may serve as a lubricant or viscosity-modifying additive in coatings and inks.
