Diglycerides, C8-10 monoglycerides and diglycerides

Diglycerides, C8-10 monoglycerides and diglycerides (CAS 85536-07-8) is a mixed glyceride ester derived from caprylic and capric fatty acids. This versatile chemical compound is a recognized ethoxylated variant used across personal care, pharmaceutical, and food applications.

It functions primarily as an emulsifier, solubilizer, and carrier for active ingredients across multiple formulation platforms. In cosmetic and personal care formulations, it solubilizes oils, fragrances, and lipophilic actives into aqueous systems.

This capability enables the production of clear gels, serums, and various rinse-off products. Pharmaceutical manufacturers use it as a self-emulsifying excipient in soft gel capsules and oral lipid-based drug delivery systems.

These systems are essential for improving the bioavailability of poorly water-soluble APIs in medical applications. Food-grade applications include emulsification in fat-based coatings and confectionery systems where controlled crystallization is required.

In adhesive and coating formulations, it acts as a plasticizing carrier that aids dispersion of hydrophobic components. This material is supplied as a liquid or low-viscosity paste depending on the ethoxylation level and fatty acid profile.

Food-grade and cosmetic-grade specifications are the most common supply forms for industrial use. Pharmaceutical-grade material is available to excipient standards including NF and Ph. Eur. compliance where applicable for global distribution.

Our supply chain ensures that all batches meet rigorous quality benchmarks for consistency and performance. Bulk supply is standard in drums and IBCs to meet the high-volume requirements of our diverse B2B manufacturing clients.
