PEG-6 caprylic/capric triglyceride

PEG-6 caprylic/capric triglyceride is a PEG-modified medium-chain triglyceride derived from coconut or palm kernel oil fractions. It functions as an emulsifier, solubilizer, and carrier across cosmetic, pharmaceutical, and food-grade formulation systems.

Identified by CAS 68954-97-2, this versatile ingredient is essential for creating stable mixtures. In personal care, it solubilizes fragrance oils, essential oils, and lipophilic actives into aqueous systems effectively.

This capability enables the production of clear gel formulations, micellar waters, and rinse-off products without cloudiness. Pharmaceutical formulators use it to improve the oral bioavailability of poorly water-soluble APIs.

It is particularly effective in self-emulsifying drug delivery systems (SEDDS) and soft gel capsules. In food and nutraceutical applications, it supports the encapsulation and emulsification of fat-soluble vitamins and flavor compounds.

Coating and adhesive formulators use it as a plasticizing carrier and dispersant for pigment and resin systems. These applications require low-viscosity, hydrophilic-compatible processing to ensure high-quality finished products.

The material is supplied as a clear to slightly yellow liquid. It is available in food-grade, cosmetic-grade, and pharmaceutical-grade specifications, conforming to excipient standards relevant to oral and topical applications.

Bulk supply is standard in drums and IBCs, with smaller quantities available for formulation development. Our technical team ensures that every batch meets rigorous safety and performance requirements for industrial use.
