Benzyl stearate

Description:

Benzyl stearate is an organic compound classified as an ester, formed from the reaction of benzyl alcohol and stearic acid. It is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a mild, pleasant odor. This compound is known for its low solubility in water but is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether. Benzyl stearate exhibits properties that make it useful as an emollient, surfactant, and solvent in various cosmetic and pharmaceutical formulations. It has a relatively high boiling point and a moderate viscosity, which contributes to its stability in formulations. Additionally, benzyl stearate is often utilized in the production of lubricants and as a plasticizer in plastics and coatings. Safety data indicates that it is generally regarded as safe for use in cosmetics, although it should be handled with care to avoid skin irritation or allergic reactions in sensitive individuals. Overall, benzyl stearate is valued for its functional properties in diverse industrial applications.
