Cetearyl Isononanoate

What Is It?
Pelargonic Acid, also called nonanoic acid, is a fatty acid with nine carbons. Isononanoic acid also has nine carbons but at least one single carbon branch. Esters of Pelargonic Acid and isononanoic acid including Butylene Glycol Diisononanoatie, Cetearyl Isononanoate, Cetearyl Nonanoate, Cetyl Isononanoate, Diethylene Glycol Diethylhexanoate/Diisononanoate, Dipentaerythrityl Pentaisononanoate, Ethylhexyl Isononanoate, Isodecyl Isononanoate, Isononyl Isononanoate, Isostearyl Isononanoate, Isotridceyl Isononanoate, Neopentyl Glycol Diisononanoate, PEG-2 Diisononanoate, PEG-5 Isononanoate, Pentaerythrityl Tetraisononanoate, Polyglyceryl-20 Octaisononanoate, Propylene Glycol Diisononanoate, Tridecyl Isononanoate, Ethylhexyl Pelagonate, Ethyl Pelargonate, Isobutyl Pelargonate, Methyl Pelargonate and Pentaerythrityl Tetrapelargonate may also be used in cosmetic and personal care products. Among the esters, Isononyl Isononoate, Cetearyl Isononanoate and Ethylhexyl Isononanoate are most likely to be used in cosmetics and personal care products.

Scientific Facts: 
Pelargonic Acid is a fatty acid that is found in almost all species of animals and plants and it is found in low levels in many foods. Because it contains nine carbon atoms, it is also called nonanoic acid. Pelargonic Acid is also used as an herbicide to prevent growth of weeds both indoors and outdoors, and as a blossom thinner for apple and pear trees.

CETEARYL ISONONANOATE
CETEARYL ISONONANOATE is classified as :
Emollient
Hair conditioning
Skin conditioning
CAS Number    111937-03-2
COSING REF No:    75138
Chem/IUPAC Name:    Isononanoic acid, C16-18-alkyl esters

Details
It's a clear, slightly yellowish oil (comes from coconut or palm kernel oil) that is used as a traditional, medium spreading emollient. 

CETEARYL ISONONANOATE
Cetearyl isononanoate is used in skin care cosmetics due to its hydrophobic properties, among other things: the particularly skin-compatible substance forms a water-repellent film on the skin surface and thus protects the skin against dehydration and epidermal water loss.

Together with ethylhexyl isononanoate and isonononyl isononanoate, cetearyl isononanoate is one of the most frequently used esters of isononanoic acid in cosmetic products.
