Ester EHOS
What is Ester EHOS?
Ester EHOS is a clear, lightweight ester oil known for its excellent lubricity and soft skin feel. The ingredient is widely used in cosmetic products such as creams, lotions, sunscreens, and make-up. Thanks to its non-greasy and silky texture, it provides comfort and functionality in a wide range of formulations. Chemically, Ester EHOS is identical to Ethylhexyl Oleate, its official INCI name, and in addition to cosmetics, it also has valuable applications in technical industries.

How is Ethylhexyl Oleate produced?
The raw material is produced through the esterification of 2-ethylhexanol with oleic acid. This process yields a stable, pure, and easily processable ester oil with strong oxidative stability. Thanks to this controlled production process, Ester EHOS is suitable for high-quality cosmetic applications as well as industrial formulations.
Function of Ester EHOS
In cosmetic applications, Ethylhexyl Oleate acts as an effective emollient: it softens and nourishes the skin, improves the spreadability of products, and leaves a thin, non-greasy film. Additionally, it functions as a solvent and carrier, ensuring even distribution of active ingredients. In technical applications, Ester EHOS contributes to lubrication, solubility, and the stability of blends.
