    Applications of our Tricaprylin:

    ♔ Pharmaceutical: 
    Tricaprylin can be used as a neutral carrier, absorption enhancer or solubilizer for active ingredients in pharmaceutical preparations. It is also used as the oil phase in the preparation of water-in-oil-in-water multilayer emulsions. It can also be used to prepare stable microcapsules and microemulsions.


    ♔ Cosmetics:
    In the cosmetics industry, Tricaprylin is used as a carrier for topical creams, lotions and cosmetics, and is also used as a lipid base and emollient to promote penetration. Due to its non-greasy and low viscosity characteristics, it has good spreadability and does not hinder the natural breathing of the skin, so it can be used in baby oils, massage oils and facial masks. It is also an excellent dispersant and acts as a solubilizer, wetting agent and adhesive in cosmetics. Tricaprylin is easily miscible with natural oils and surfactants and is the fat component of two-phase foam baths. It has good compatibility with organic and inorganic sunscreen ingredients and is also used in sunscreens. Tricaprylin is also used as a fixative for perfumes or fragrances.

    Packaging:

    5g/bottle, 10g/bottle, 20g/bottle, 30g/bottle, 50g/bottle, 100g/bottle or according to the specific requirements from customers.

    Recommended Storage Conditions:

    Short-term storage at room temperature; more than three months is best stored at 2-8 degrees Celsius; more than one year is best stored at -20±5 degrees Celsius.

    Shelf Life:

    24 months if stored under above conditions.

    Tricaprilin (Trioctanoin) is used in study for patients with mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease and has a role as an anticonvulsant and a plant metabolite[1][2].

    Water Solubility:

    In water, 8.5X10-7 mol/L (0.40 mg/L) at 37 deg C

    Storage Conditions:

    Tricaprylin is classified as a stable compound. It has high stability against oxidation and is not heat sensitive. Even in hot climates cooling is not necessary. However, exposure to high temperatures near the flash point (246℃) should be avoided. Owing to its very low water content, it is not sensitive to hydrolytic and microbial splitting. Although polymerization of tricaprylin will not occur, it is reported to decompose into carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide.

    Air and Water Reactions:

    Insoluble in water.

    Reactive Group:

    Esters, Sulfate Esters, Phosphate Esters, Thiophosphate Esters, and Borate Esters

    Reactivity Profile:

    TRICAPRYLIN is an ester. Esters react with acids to liberate heat along with alcohols and acids. Strong oxidizing acids may cause a vigorous reaction that is sufficiently exothermic to ignite the reaction products. Heat is also generated by the interaction of esters with caustic solutions. Flammable hydrogen is generated by mixing esters with alkali metals and hydrides. This chemical is incompatible with strong oxidizers. (NTP, 1992).
