Trilinolenin (CAS 537-40-6), also known as Trilinolein, is the triglyceride form of linoleic acid, a naturally occurring lipid found in plant-derived oils.

Where is Trilinolenin used?

• Cosmetics: emollient, carrier and emulsifier
• Personal care: supports skin barrier function and acts as a lightweight carrier for active ingredients in serums, creams and oils
• Pharmaceuticals: lipid excipient in soft gel encapsulation
• Lipid-based drug delivery systems: controlled release and biocompatibility
• Food: reference standard and functional lipid component in nutritional research
• Specialty fat formulations
• Cosmetic chemists incorporate it into emulsified systems where a linoleic-rich triglyceride profile is required.
