Decyl 4-hydroxybenzoate

Description:
Decyl 4-hydroxybenzoate, with the CAS number 69679-30-7, is an organic compound that belongs to the class of esters. It is derived from the esterification of 4-hydroxybenzoic acid and decanol. This compound is characterized by its hydrophobic nature due to the long decyl chain, which enhances its solubility in oils and organic solvents while being less soluble in water. Decyl 4-hydroxybenzoate is commonly used as an emollient and skin-conditioning agent in cosmetic formulations, providing moisturizing properties and improving the texture of products. Additionally, it serves as a preservative alternative due to its antimicrobial properties, helping to extend the shelf life of formulations. The compound is generally considered safe for use in cosmetics, but like many substances, it should be used within recommended concentrations to avoid potential skin irritation. Its stability and compatibility with various ingredients make it a valuable component in personal care products.
