Dodecanoicacid - Introduction
ISOPROPYL LAURATE(Isopropyl Laurate) is an organic compound with the chemical formula C15H30O2. It is a colorless to yellowish liquid with low viscosity and low odor.
ISOPROPYL LAURATE are primarily used in cosmetics and personal care products as emollients and grease ingredients. It can provide a silky and comfortable touch, and has good permeability, which can help other active ingredients to be better absorbed by the skin.
A common method for preparing ISOPROPYL LAURATE is to esterify isopropanol and lauric acid. The reaction is generally carried out under acidic conditions using an acid catalyst such as sulfuric acid or dimethyl sulfate. In addition, a ISOPROPYL LAURATE can also be obtained by reacting laurate with isopropanol using a transesterification reaction.
Regarding the safety of using ISOPROPYL LAURATE, it is considered to be a relatively safe compound. However, the use of still need to pay attention to comply with the relevant safety procedures. Avoid contact with eyes and skin, and keep away from open flames or high temperatures. Proper testing is recommended before use to ensure that no adverse reactions occur.
