di-c12-13 alkyl malate

Di-C12-13 Alkyl Malate (CAS 149144-85-4) is a diester of malic acid with branched C12-13 fatty alcohols, functioning as an emollient, lubricant, and emulsifier across personal care and industrial formulations.

It delivers a lightweight, non-greasy skin feel in cosmetic applications while providing effective lubrication and surface conditioning in technical uses. In skin care and color cosmetics, it acts as an emollient carrier.

This ingredient improves spreadability and texture in creams, foundations, and lip products without leaving heavy residue. Sunscreen and SPF formulations use it to disperse UV filters evenly while maintaining a cosmetically elegant finish.

In home care and industrial cleaning products, it supports emulsification of oils and soils, improving rinse-off performance in hard surface cleaners and degreasers. This versatility makes it a staple for diverse chemical manufacturing.

Lubricant formulators incorporate it as a base fluid or additive where low viscosity, good film formation, and compatibility with synthetic systems are required. It offers excellent stability across various temperature ranges.

Di-C12-13 Alkyl Malate is supplied as a clear, low-viscosity liquid. It is available in cosmetic-grade quality meeting personal care industry standards, and in technical-grade form for industrial and lubricant applications.

Bulk supply is standard in drums and IBCs, with packaging options suited to both cosmetic and industrial procurement volumes. Our logistics network ensures reliable delivery for large-scale manufacturing requirements.
