  • Applications

    Isodecyl Oleate (CAS 59231-34-4) is a fatty ester commonly used as an emollient in cosmetics and personal care formulations, providing slip and skin-conditioning properties in creams, lotions, and hair-care products. It also serves as a solvent or carrier for actives and fragrances, and functions as a processing aid and plasticizer in polymers, coatings, and inks to improve flexibility and handling. In industrial manufacturing, it can act as a lubricating oil or processing aid in various formulations, and in household products it may serve as a light emollient component in cleaners and polishes. Use is typically formulation-dependent and subject to local regulations and limits.
