PENTAERYTHRITOL DISTEARATE CAS 13081-97-5
Pentaerythrityl Distearate, CAS No. 13081-97-5, is a white to light yellow waxy solid / powder. It is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents such as alcohols, esters, and aromatic hydrocarbons. The molecule contains 2 ester bonds and 2 hydroxyl groups. It belongs to non-ionic polyol ester type surfactants. Pentaerythrityl Distearate is a mixture of ester compounds and is commonly used as a thickener, emulsifier, or lubricant in various cosmetics and personal care products. It is also used as a plasticizer or stabilizer in the production of plastics and resins.
Core performance
