Heptyl undecylenate

Heptyl undecylenate (CAS 68141-27-5 ) is an ester of undecylenic acid and heptanol used as an emollient, lubricant, and dispersing agent across personal care and industrial formulations. Derived from renewable castor oil chemistry, it offers a bio-based profile that appeals to formulators targeting sustainable ingredient sourcing for modern applications. In skin and hair care, it functions as a lightweight emollient that improves spreadability and skin feel in lotions, serums, and conditioning treatments without a greasy residue. Lubricant and metalworking formulators incorporate it as a base or additive component where bio-derived esters are preferred over conventional mineral oil derivatives. In coatings and adhesive systems, it acts as a plasticizing dispersant that aids pigment wetting and improves film flexibility during the manufacturing process. Sealant and elastomer compounders also use it to modify surface tack and processing flow in finished formulations, ensuring consistent performance across various industrial sectors. Heptyl undecylenate is supplied as a clear to pale yellow liquid. It is available in technical and cosmetic grades, with cosmetic-grade material meeting purity standards relevant to personal care. Bulk supply is standard in drums and intermediate bulk containers, with smaller packaging available for laboratory and development use to support diverse customer requirements.
