  • Applications

    Isopropyl Ricinoleate (CAS 71685-99-9) is a fatty ester derived from ricinoleic acid (castor oil) that is commonly used as an emollient and conditioning agent in cosmetics and personal care products such as creams, lotions, and lip care; it also serves as a solvent or carrier for fragrance ingredients in perfumery and cosmetic formulations; acts as a plasticizer or processing aid for polymers and coatings to improve flexibility and film properties; functions as a lubricant or slip additive in industrial formulations and surface finishing applications; can be used as a base solvent in cleaning products and degreasers; and may be employed as an intermediate in the synthesis of other fatty ester derivatives.
