Glyceryl tri(2-ethylhexanoate)

Description:
Glyceryl tri(2-ethylhexanoate), also known as glyceryl tri(2-ethylhexanoic acid ester), is an ester derived from glycerol and 2-ethylhexanoic acid. It is a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a mild odor, characterized by its low viscosity and high stability. This compound is non-toxic and biodegradable, making it suitable for various applications, including as a plasticizer in polymers and as an emollient in cosmetic formulations. Glyceryl tri(2-ethylhexanoate) exhibits good solubility in organic solvents and oils, while being insoluble in water, which enhances its utility in formulations requiring hydrophobic properties. Its chemical structure contributes to its ability to improve flexibility and processability in materials, as well as its skin-conditioning properties in personal care products. Additionally, it has a relatively high flash point, indicating good thermal stability. Overall, glyceryl tri(2-ethylhexanoate) is valued for its performance in both industrial and cosmetic applications due to its favorable physical and chemical properties.
