CAS 822-26-4
:behenyl acetate
Description:
Behenyl acetate, with the CAS number 822-26-4, is an organic compound classified as an ester. It is derived from behenic acid, a long-chain fatty acid, and ethanol. This substance typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a mild, fatty odor. Behenyl acetate is known for its emollient properties, making it a popular ingredient in cosmetic and personal care formulations, where it acts as a skin-conditioning agent and a solvent for other ingredients. It has a relatively high molecular weight, which contributes to its stability and low volatility. In addition to its use in cosmetics, behenyl acetate can also serve as a lubricant and plasticizer in various industrial applications. Its low solubility in water and good solubility in organic solvents make it versatile for different formulations. Safety data indicates that behenyl acetate is generally regarded as safe for use in cosmetics, although, like all chemicals, it should be handled with appropriate precautions to avoid potential irritation or allergic reactions.
