  • Applications

    Cholesteryl myristoleate, CAS 29193-93-9, is a wax-like lipid ester that may be used as a lipid component in cosmetic and personal care formulations, serving as an emollient and texture or rheology modifier. As a waxy ester, it can be incorporated into polymer and coating matrices to adjust melting behavior, hardness, and slip. In industrial manufacturing, it may function as a lubricant or processing aid and as a waxy additive in formulations requiring a lipid phase. In pharmaceutical formulations, it can serve as a lipid-based excipient or carrier in certain lipid-containing products. In coatings and inks, it can act as a wax additive to improve gloss, smoothness, and water resistance.
