Glycerolmonooleaat type HO

What is Glycerolmonooleate type HO?
Glycerolmonooleate Type HO is a high-quality ester oil known for its emollient properties and excellent lubricity. The difference compared to standard Glycerolmonooleate is that this product contains a higher content of oleic acid, indicated by the abbreviation HO for “High Oleic.” Under the INCI name Glyceryl Oleate, it is widely used in cosmetics such as creams, lotions, make-up, and sunscreens, where it provides a smooth, soft, and non-greasy skin feel. Thanks to the higher oleic concentration, the product also offers improved skin-conditioning properties and enhanced stability.

How is Glyceryl Oleate produced?
Glyceryl Oleate Type HO is produced through the esterification of high-oleic acid content with glycerol. This chemical process yields a stable, easily processable monoester of consistent quality. Thanks to its controlled production, Glyceryl Oleate Type HO is suitable for both cosmetic applications and technical formulations.
Function of Glycerolmonooleate type HO
In cosmetics, Glyceryl Oleate acts as an emollient and emulsifier: it softens the skin, improves the spreadability of creams and lotions, and leaves a pleasant, non-greasy film. The higher oleic acid concentration enhances the skin-conditioning effect and contributes to the stability of emulsions. In technical applications, Glyceryl Oleate Type HO is used to stabilize blends and improve the processability of oils and emulsions.
