Isopropyl stearate

Description:
Isopropyl stearate is an ester derived from isopropyl alcohol and stearic acid, characterized by its chemical formula C21H42O2. It appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a mild, fatty odor. This compound is known for its emollient properties, making it a common ingredient in cosmetic and personal care formulations, where it serves to enhance skin feel and provide moisture. Isopropyl stearate is also utilized in the formulation of lubricants and as a solvent in various industrial applications. It has a relatively low toxicity profile, which contributes to its safety in consumer products. Additionally, it exhibits good stability under normal conditions, although it should be stored away from strong oxidizing agents and extreme temperatures. Its solubility characteristics allow it to dissolve in oils while being less soluble in water, which is typical for fatty acid esters. Overall, isopropyl stearate is valued for its functional properties in both cosmetic and industrial contexts.
