Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride is an oily liquid made from palm kernel or coconut oil.
Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride is a mixed ester composed of caprylic and capric fatty acids attached to a glycerin backbone.
Caprylic/capric triglycerides are sometimes erroneously referred to as fractionated coconut oil, which is similar in composition but typically refers to coconut oil that has had its longer chain triglycerides removed.

Chemically speaking, fats and oils are made up mostly of triglycerides whose fatty acids are chains ranging from 6–12 carbon atoms, in this case the ester is comprised of capric (10 carbon atoms) and caprylic (8 carbon atoms).

To make Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, fats and oils are split into glycerine and fatty acids.
The fatty acids are separated from each other by fractional distillation.
The short chain acids (especially caprylic acid and capric acid) are esterified with the glycerine.

This fraction is liquid at room temperature.
Another name that is used is 'fractionated coconut oil', even in cases it is not made of coconut oil alone.
Caprylic/capric triglyceride can be produced by reacting coconut oil with glycerin, which separates or ‘fractionates’ the glycerides.

‘Caprylic’ and ‘Capric’ are names to describe the length of the resulting fatty acid molecules: 8 carbons long for caprylic and 10 for capric.
The fractionating process removes almost all the long chain triglycerides, leaving mostly medium chain triglycerides and making it a more saturated oil.
This saturation gives Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride a long shelf life and makes it more stable.

Fractionating Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride raises the comparative concentration of capric acid and caprylic acid, giving it greater antioxidant properties.
Caprylic/capric triglyceride is an oily liquid derived from caprylic and capric fatty acids (typically sourced from coconut oil) and glycerin.
Caprylic acid and capric acid are saturated fatty acids found naturally in plant oils such as coconut and palm.

These fatty acids are also found in the milk of some mammals, including goats, from which they get their name - ‘caprylic’ and ‘capric’ coming from the latin word for goats: capra.
The caprylic/capric triglyceride we use is from plant (non-animal) origins.

Despite what is often purported on the internet skin care advice sites, there is no research showing caprylic/capric triglyceride is “comedogenic” or pore clogging.
(This assumption is often tied to its relation to coconut oil.)

Theoretically, because its molecular weight of 408 is below 500 Daltons, caprylic/capric triglyceride technically has the ability to penetrate the pore lining, but even that doesn’t inherently mean it will clog pores.
