  • Applications

    Octyldodecyl Stearate (CAS 22766-82-1) is primarily used as an emollient and carrier solvent in cosmetics and personal care, providing slip and a soft feel in creams, lotions, and foundations. It is commonly used as a solvent or carrier for fragrance oils and active ingredients in fragrance formulations. In polymers and coatings, it may serve as a plasticizer or processing aid to improve flexibility and workability of plastic formulations. In coatings and inks, it can be added to enhance slip and surface feel. It can also function as a lightweight ester-based carrier and lubricious additive in industrial formulations where distribution of active ingredients is desired.
