Product name:Isopropyl myristate
English alias: IPM; Isopropyl tetradecanoate; Myristic acid isopropyl ester
CAS: 110-27-0
Molecular formula: C17H34O2
Appearance: Colorless to pale yellow transparent liquid
Package: 175kg/drum
It is a classic emollient ester formed by the esterification of myristic acid and isopropanol. It is characterized by its light texture, excellent spreading properties, and good solubility in most organic solvents. As a widely used cosmetic ingredient, it provides a non-greasy, silky feel and enhances product absorption. The molecular formula is C₁₇H₃₄O₂, and it typically appears as a colorless to light yellow transparent liquid with a faint characteristic odor.
