  • Applications

    Stigmasteryl palmitate, CAS 2308-84-1, is a stigmasterol palmitate ester primarily used as an emollient and conditioning agent in cosmetics and personal care; it can function as a wax ester and processing aid in polymers and plastics to improve texture and processability. It is also used as a wax-like component in coatings and inks to enhance gloss and slip, and may serve as a wax-based additive in household products such as cleaners and polishes to improve tactile feel and formulation stability.
