  • Applications

    Glyceryl Triacetyl Hydroxystearate (CAS 27233-00-7) is a lipophilic fatty ester that is commonly used in cosmetics and personal care as an emollient and conditioning agent, improving slip, texture, and spreadability in creams, lotions and hair formulations. It is also used as a plasticizer and processing aid in certain polymers and coatings, helping to produce flexible films and impart gloss. In industrial formulations, it can function as a lubricating component and additive in cleaners and coatings, and can modify rheology in emulsions and coatings. Its role is primarily as a lipid-like emollient and processing aid rather than a reactive solvent, with typical applications spanning cosmetics, polymers/coatings, and household product formulations, subject to local regulations and formulation limits.
