Propylheptyl caprylate

Propylheptyl caprylate (CAS 868839-23-0 ), commercially known as Cetiol Sensoft, is a branched-chain ester used as an emollient, solvent carrier, and lubricant across personal care and industrial formulations. Its low-viscosity, dry-skin-feel profile makes it a preferred alternative to silicones and traditional esters in premium cosmetic systems. In personal care, it functions as a lightweight emollient and solvent. It is used in skin creams, sunscreens, and color cosmetics, delivering a non-greasy after-feel that formulators actively seek as a silicone replacement. Industrial coatings and adhesive formulations use it as a plasticizing carrier. This helps to improve substrate wetting and film flexibility. In lubricant and metalworking applications, it acts as a base fluid or additive carrier where low volatility and good lubricity on metal surfaces are required. It also serves as a dispersant vehicle for pigments and active ingredients in both cosmetic and specialty coating systems. Propylheptyl caprylate is supplied as a clear, low-viscosity liquid. It is available in cosmetic-grade and technical-grade specifications to meet the requirements of personal care and industrial buyers respectively. Packaging typically ranges from drums to IBC containers for bulk procurement. Contact us for supply of Propylheptyl caprylate Request Quote
