Polyglyceryl-2 caprate

Polyglyceryl-2 Caprate (CAS 156153-06-9), also known as diglyceryl monocaprate, is a mild, plant-derived emulsifier and surfactant. It functions as an emulsifier, humectant, and wetting agent across personal care, food, and industrial formulations.

In cosmetics and skincare, it stabilizes oil-in-water emulsions in creams, lotions, and cleansers while contributing moisturizing properties to the finished product. This versatile ingredient is highly valued for its gentle profile.

Food manufacturers use it as an emulsifier in fat-based systems and confectionery coatings, where it supports uniform dispersion and texture consistency. It ensures that ingredients remain well-blended during the manufacturing process.

In coatings and adhesive formulations, it acts as a surface modifier and wetting agent to improve substrate adhesion and coating uniformity. This improves the overall performance and durability of the industrial application.

Its compatibility with natural and organic formulation standards makes it a preferred emulsifier in certified clean-label and natural cosmetic product lines. It meets the growing demand for sustainable chemical solutions.

Polyglyceryl-2 Caprate is typically supplied as a liquid or low-viscosity paste. Food-grade and cosmetic-grade specifications are available to meet various regulatory requirements and industry-specific needs.

Cosmetic grades commonly align to COSMOS and natural certification standards. Packaging is available in drums and intermediate bulk containers suited to industrial procurement volumes for global distribution.
