  • Applications

    Succistearin (CAS 27216-62-2) is a long-chain fatty wax ester used in several practical applications; in cosmetics and personal care it serves as an emollient and structuring wax for formulations, in industrial manufacturing it can act as a lubricant and processing aid, in coatings and inks it can improve gloss and water resistance, and as a wax ester it is used as a candle and household wax component and can function as a lubricant or plasticizer in polymer formulations.
