Coco-Caprylate/Caprate

Product Overview

Coco-Caprylate/Caprate (CCC, CAS: 95912-86-0) is an ultra-lightweight emollient ester derived 100% from natural botanical sources (coconut and palm). As a star base oil under the "Clean Beauty" philosophy, it is widely recognized in the industry as the premier plant-based drop-in replacement for volatile silicones (such as Cyclomethicone D5).

Manufactured using an advanced fully liquid-phase (LILO) flash evaporation process for dehydration and light-end removal, this product completely eliminates the yellowing and pungent acidic odors typically caused by prolonged heating in traditional batch reactors. Under high-vacuum conditions, free alcohols and trace moisture are precisely stripped away, yielding a crystal-clear, water-white product with exceptional batch-to-batch consistency and scalable custom production capabilities. All quality parameters strictly align with leading international manufacturer standards. Serving as a direct alternative to imported grades such as BASF's Cetiol® LC and Cetiol® C5, our CCC is the formulator's preferred choice thanks to its superior skin feel and physicochemical profile.

Advanced Applications & Formulation Recommendations

In premium "silicone-free" skincare and personal care formulations, CCC delivers an exceptionally dry, spreadable, and fast-absorbing skin feel. Upon application, it forms a breathable, invisible protective film on the skin without any greasiness or heaviness. In amino acid-based cleansing oils, its ultra-low viscosity and excellent spreading properties enable rapid makeup dissolution and effortless emulsification/rinsing. In W/O high-end foundation liquids and high-SPF transparent sunscreen sprays, it effectively mitigates the whitening cast and dryness often associated with physical UV filters, while significantly enhancing the uniformity of powder dispersion.

Usage & Handling Guidelines

The recommended usage level in standard formulations ranges from 2% to 15%. Featuring excellent fluidity comparable to water, it imparts a dry, silky, premium touch to end products while maintaining exceptional chemical stability and resistance to oxidation. It is fully compatible with cold-process manufacturing, allowing for direct addition, and exhibits perfect miscibility with a wide range of oils, synthetic esters, and surfactants.
