  • Applications

    Glyceryl Dimyristate (CAS 53563-63-6) is a wax-like diester of glycerol primarily used as an emollient and texture enhancer in cosmetics and personal care products; it can also serve as a processing aid and plasticizer in polymer and coating formulations to improve rheology and feel; in pharmaceutical formulations, it acts as a lipid-based excipient or carrier for lipophilic active ingredients; in fragrance and perfumery, it may function as a carrier base or waxy component for fragrance oils; and in coatings and inks as a wax-like additive that modulates hardness, slip and gloss. These uses are typical and may be subject to local regulations and formulation limits.
