Industrial, Cosmetic & Pharmaceutical Grade Vinyl Palmitate (Palmitic Acid Vinyl Ester) CAS 693-38-9 Ethenyl Hexadecanoate Polymer Monomer, Surfactant

Vinyl Palmitate (Also known as Palmitic Acid Vinyl Ester, CAS:693-38-9,EINECS:211-751-0, HS Code:2915709000) is a colorless to pale yellow liquid with mild fatty odor. We supply industrial and cosmetic grades stabilized with MEHQ to prevent polymerization. This product is insoluble in water, soluble in organic solvents like ethanol, ether and chloroform. It is a key vinyl ester monomer with excellent copolymerization properties, widely used in polymer synthesis, cosmetics, coatings and personal care products.

Applications
Polymer & Resin Industry (Core Application)
Acts as premium monomer for synthesizing polyvinyl palmitate and copolymers with vinyl acetate, ethylene and acrylic esters. These polymers are used for producing adhesives, coatings, plasticizers and film materials with excellent flexibility and water resistance.
Cosmetics & Personal Care
Key ingredient in skin care products, hair care formulations and cosmetics. It functions as emollient, thickener and film-forming agent, improving skin hydration, enhancing product texture and providing long-lasting moisturizing effect.
Coatings & Adhesives
Used in manufacturing water-resistant coatings, pressure-sensitive adhesives and printing inks. It improves coating flexibility, adhesion and weather resistance, suitable for wood, metal and plastic surface treatment.
Textile & Leather Industry
Applied as textile finishing agent and leather conditioner. It enhances fabric softness, improves leather smoothness and water repellency, while maintaining breathability of materials.
Lubricants & Surfactants
Raw material for producing specialty lubricants, emulsifiers and nonionic surfactants. These products are used in industrial processing, agricultural formulations and household cleaning products.
Laboratory & Fine Chemicals
Standard monomer for polymer research and development. Also used in synthesis of specialty chemicals, pharmaceutical intermediates and flavor/fragrance ingredients.
