About Isopropyl Behenate

Isopropyl Behenate is an ester of isopropyl alcohol and behenic acid.[1] The moisturization and spreadability of a finished product containing Isopropyl Behenate may vary depending on the concentration used and the combination of moisturizing and emollient ingredients used with it. In cosmetics, it is used to reduce friction on the skin or hair and provide a smooth feel, and to smooth and refine the skin’s surface.[2]
