About Propyl Alcohol

Propyl Alcohol is an aliphatic alcohol.[1] The flow and texture of a formulation containing Propyl Alcohol may vary depending on the concentration, temperature, and proportions of the liquid and solid ingredients used with it. In cosmetics, it is used to suppress the formation of unnecessary foam during manufacture or use, and to dissolve other ingredients to create a uniform formulation.[2]
