Isononanoic acid CAS 26896-18-4

About Isononanoic acid CAS 26896-18-4

Isononanoic acid is a colorless liquid with a pungent odor, soluble in water and ethanol, and also soluble in organic solvents such as acetone, benzene and methylene chloride. It has many uses in industry, for example as a catalyst for polymer reactions. In addition,isononanoic acid is also widely used in daily skin care products,one of the important derivatives is isononyl ester,also known as silk oil. This substance has a unique polymethyl branched structure that provides a silky feel, dry and extremely soft hand,and is an excellent emollient. It has good compatibility with silicone oil and can solve the problem of low-temperature precipitation of silicone oil. Therefore, it is a stabilizer and coupling agent for silicone oil. In addition, isonononyl isononate has good dispersion ability for pigments, low viscosity, refreshing skin feel, non-greasy feeling, is widely used in skin care products, foundation creams, oily powders and other cosmetics The addition amount is usually 1-5%. These properties make isononanoic acid and its derivatives important in personal care products and industrial applications.
