Phenoxyethyl caprylate

Phenoxyethyl caprylate (CAS 23511-73-1 ), also marketed as Tegosoft XC, is a synthetic ester used as an emollient, solvent, and carrier in cosmetic and industrial formulations. It combines the sensory properties of a light skin-feel ester with strong solvency for actives, pigments, and UV filters. In personal care, it functions as a spreading agent and solvent. It is used in sunscreens, color cosmetics, and skin care products to dissolve organic UV filters and disperse pigments that are difficult to incorporate into standard emollient bases. Its low viscosity and compatibility with silicones make it a preferred carrier in foundation formulas and pressed powders where texture and payoff are critical for the end user. In industrial and metalworking applications, it serves as a base fluid or co-solvent in lubricant formulations where a synthetic ester with good film-forming characteristics is required. It also finds use as a solvent carrier for fragrance and active delivery systems in leave-on formulations. Phenoxyethyl caprylate is supplied as a clear, low-viscosity liquid. It is available in cosmetic-grade quality meeting standard personal care specifications. Supply is typically provided in drums and IBCs for commercial quantities and bulk orders.
