Dimyristyl tartrate

Dimyristyl tartrate (CAS 94237-18-0 ), also marketed under the trade name Cosmacol ETLP, is a diester of tartaric acid and myristyl alcohol used across personal care, lubricant, and polymer applications. It functions as a lubricant, plasticizer, and emulsifier, offering a waxy, skin-compatible profile that suits both cosmetic and industrial formulation needs. In personal care, it acts as a skin-conditioning emollient. It serves as a texture modifier in creams, lip products, and color cosmetics, contributing slip and spreadability without a heavy after-feel. Formulators in the plastics and polymer sector use it as a plasticizer. It acts as a processing aid to improve flexibility and workability in finished compounds. In lubricant and metalworking formulations, it provides boundary lubrication and reduces friction in systems where ester-based chemistries are preferred. Its emulsifying character also supports dispersion of pigments and actives in anhydrous or low-water cosmetic bases. Dimyristyl tartrate is typically supplied as a solid waxy material or flakes. It is suitable for melt incorporation or solvent-based processing. It is available in cosmetic-grade specification, with material conforming to supplier-defined purity standards relevant to personal care end use. Packaging options generally range from kilogram-scale bags to bulk quantities for industrial procurement. This versatile ester ensures high performance across diverse chemical manufacturing and formulation sectors. Contact us for supply of Dimyristyl tartrate Request Quote
