Isopropyl Palmitate for Cosmetics Global Supply from Malaysia Worldwide

Isopropyl Palmitate is a fatty-acid ester formed through the combination of palmitic acid and isopropyl alcohol. It is generally supplied as a colourless, oil-like liquid with low odour and is used extensively in cosmetic and personal-care manufacturing. IPP-98 refers to a high-purity commercial grade containing a minimum specified ester content.

Isopropyl Palmitate provides emollience, slip and spreadability, helping creams, lotions and makeup products distribute smoothly across the skin. It can improve sensory performance by contributing a soft and refined after-feel while supporting the texture and consistency of compatible formulations.
