Dibutyl Adipate (CAS 105-99-7) is a compound with a well-defined chemical identity, and understanding its structure and properties is fundamental for its effective application in various industries.

The chemical name for Dibutyl Adipate is Dibutyl hexanedioate. Its molecular formula is C14H26O4, and it is classified as a diester. Structurally, it is formed from the esterification of adipic acid with butyl alcohol. This chemical structure contributes to its characteristic properties, such as its liquid state at room temperature and its solubility profile. It is generally considered a colorless to almost colorless clear liquid with a mild odor. Its physical properties include a boiling point of approximately 305 °C and a melting point of -32 °C, indicating it remains liquid across a wide temperature range.

Dibutyl Adipate is soluble in most organic solvents, which is crucial for its function as a solvent in cosmetic formulations, particularly for UV filters. However, its solubility in water is very low. These solubility characteristics are directly linked to its ester composition and non-polar hydrocarbon chains. Industrially, it is often used as a plasticizer, where its molecular structure allows it to interact with polymer chains, increasing their flexibility.

For ease of reference and cross-referencing, Dibutyl Adipate is also known by several synonyms, including Butyl adipate, Di-n-butyl adipate, and Hexanedioic acid, dibutyl ester. Familiarity with these synonyms is important for accessing literature and regulatory information. NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. supplies Dibutyl Adipate with a purity typically exceeding 99%, ensuring that our clients receive a product that meets high chemical standards for their formulation needs.
