FAQs of Isopropyl palmitate CAS142-91-6
Q:What are the main physical and chemical properties of isopropyl palmitate?
A:Insoluble in water, but soluble in most organic solvents, such as ethanol, ether and mineral oil. Density is about 0.86 g/cm³. Melting point is about -40°C. Boiling point is about 250°C. It is stable at room temperature, but may decompose under high temperature and light conditions. Isopropyl Palmitate is an ester compound with good lubricating and moisturising properties and does not react with most chemicals.
Q:What are the applications of Isopropyl Palmitate in cosmetics and personal care products?
A:As a highly effective emollient, Isopropyl Palmitate provides a smooth and soft feel to the skin and reduces dryness. In lotions and creams, Isopropyl Palmitate can act as an emulsifier to help mix oil and water and improve product stability. In products such as sunscreens, lipsticks and make-up removers, Isopropyl Palmitate can be used as a solvent to help dissolve other ingredients and improve product uniformity and spreadability. Isopropyl palmitate has good moisturising properties, locking in moisture to the skin and reducing water evaporation. In some products, Isopropyl Palmitate can be used as a thickener to increase the viscosity of the product and improve the feeling of use.
Q:What are the applications of isopropyl palmitate in the pharmaceutical industry?
A:As a drug carrier, Isopropyl Palmitate can help the drug to better penetrate the skin and improve the absorption and efficacy of the drug. In some oral and topical drug formulations, Isopropyl Palmitate can be used as a solvent to help dissolve the active ingredient and improve the solubility and stability of the drug. In the production of tablets and capsules, isopropyl palmitate can be used as a lubricant to reduce adhesion and friction and improve production efficiency. In some pharmaceutical formulations, isopropyl palmitate can be used as an excipient to improve the appearance and taste of the drug.
Q:What are the safety and precautions for Isopropyl Palmitate?
A:Although Isopropyl Palmitate is generally considered mild, individuals may have allergic reactions or skin irritation to it. Skin testing is recommended prior to use. If it accidentally gets into the eyes, flush immediately with plenty of water and seek medical help. Prolonged inhalation of highly concentrated vapours of isopropyl palmitate may cause respiratory discomfort and it is recommended that it be used in a well-ventilated environment. It should be stored in a cool, dry, ventilated area away from direct sunlight and high temperatures. Appropriate personal protective equipment such as gloves and goggles should be worn when handling to minimise the risk of exposure.
