How is Decyl oleate made?
Decyl oleate is produced by esterifying natural fatty acids such as oleic acid with decyl alcohol. This process results in a stable, hydrophobic oil that mixes well with other fatty ingredients and is suitable for various applications in cosmetics and personal care products.
The function of Decyloleate
Decyl Oleate is a popular ingredient in skin care formulations due to its non-greasy, fast-absorbing nature. It improves the spreadability of creams and lotions, helps dissolve active ingredients, and leaves skin feeling soft and hydrated without leaving a greasy residue. It also functions as an emollient and skin conditioner.
