Myristyl lactate
Description
Myristyl lactate (CAS 1323-03-1 ), also marketed under the trade name Ceraphyl 50 and known commercially as tetradecyl lactate, is an ester used in personal care formulations as an emollient, solubilizer, and skin-conditioning agent. It improves the spreadability and sensory feel of topical products without leaving a heavy or greasy residue. In leave-on skin care, including lotions, creams, and serums, it functions as a lightweight emollient that enhances skin feel. This ingredient aids in the uniform distribution of active ingredients across the skin surface. Color cosmetics such as foundations and lipsticks use it as a plasticizer and binder to improve texture, adhesion, and payoff. It also acts as a solubilizer for fragrance components and oil-soluble actives in both rinse-off and leave-on systems. Hair care formulations incorporate it to condition and reduce friction without contributing to buildup. Myristyl lactate is supplied as a clear to pale yellow liquid. It is available in cosmetic-grade specification, the standard for personal care applications, and is commonly evaluated against purity benchmarks. These benchmarks are relevant to finished product compliance and safety standards. Packaging typically ranges from drums to intermediate bulk containers for commercial supply volumes to meet industrial manufacturing needs. Contact us for supply of Myristyl lactate Request Quote
