Isopropyl stearate

Isopropyl stearate (CAS 112-10-7 ), also sold under the trade name Wickenol 127, is an ester of isopropyl alcohol and stearic acid used as an emollient, lubricant, and solvent carrier across personal care and industrial markets. Its low viscosity and good spreadability make it a practical formulation base where dry, non-greasy skin feel or controlled lubricity is required. In personal care formulations, it functions as an emollient and carrier in creams and lotions. It is frequently used in color cosmetics, contributing a lightweight skin feel without the heaviness of heavier esters or mineral oils. Textile and leather finishing operations use it as a softening and lubricating agent. This material improves fiber pliability and reduces friction during processing. Metalworking and industrial lubricant formulators incorporate it as a base fluid or co-solvent where biodegradable ester-based lubrication is preferred. It serves as an effective alternative to petroleum-derived products. It also acts as a plasticizer and solvent carrier in specialty coatings and paper treatment formulations, providing consistent performance across various applications. Isopropyl stearate is supplied as a clear to pale yellow liquid at ambient conditions. It is available in cosmetic-grade and technical-grade specifications to meet the diverse needs of global manufacturing clients. Cosmetic-grade material typically meets purity and color standards required by personal care manufacturers. Bulk supply is standard in drums and IBC containers to ensure efficient logistics and handling for large-scale production. Contact us for supply of Isopropyl stearate Request Quote
