Product Description:
Hexadecyl Methyl Glycerol is widely used in the formulation of cosmetic and personal care products due to its excellent emollient and moisturizing properties. It helps to improve skin hydration by forming a protective barrier that locks in moisture, making it a key ingredient in lotions, creams, and serums. Additionally, it enhances the texture and spreadability of products, providing a smooth and non-greasy feel.
In the pharmaceutical industry, it serves as a stabilizer and solubilizing agent in drug delivery systems, improving the bioavailability of active ingredients. Its biocompatibility and non-irritating nature make it suitable for use in topical formulations, including ointments and gels for skin treatments.
In research, it is utilized as a lipid component in the study of membrane structures and liposome-based drug delivery systems, aiding in the development of targeted therapies. Its unique chemical structure also makes it a valuable tool in understanding lipid metabolism and cellular processes.
