Ethyl oleate

Ethyl oleate (CAS 111-62-6 ), also known by its FEMA 2450 designation in flavor applications, is a fatty acid ester derived from oleic acid and ethanol. It functions as a low-viscosity carrier solvent, emollient, and lubricant across pharmaceutical, food, and industrial formulations. In pharmaceutical and nutraceutical manufacturing, it acts as an injectable vehicle and solubilizer for lipophilic active compounds. It offers low toxicity and good miscibility with oils, making it a preferred choice for complex delivery systems. Flavor formulators use it as a fruity, waxy flavor modifier in food products where a mild fatty note is required. Personal care manufacturers incorporate it into skin-feel emollients and hair conditioning formulations for better performance. Its low viscosity aids spreadability without leaving a heavy residue on the skin or hair. In metalworking and specialty lubricant blends, it functions as a biodegradable base fluid or co-solvent where environmental compliance is a priority. This material is supplied as a clear, pale yellow liquid in drum and IBC quantities for large-scale operations. Food-grade and pharmaceutical-grade ( USP /NF) specifications are the most commercially available options for buyers. Technical-grade material is also offered for industrial lubricant applications where high-purity standards are less critical. Purity levels typically range from 95% to 99%+ depending on the intended application and regulatory requirement. The product meets rigorous safety standards for use in sensitive applications across the global supply chain. Its versatility as a solvent and lubricant makes it a staple ingredient for diverse manufacturing sectors worldwide. Contact us for supply of Ethyl oleate Request Quote
