Decyl Cocoate is a natural-based, low viscous and highly pure emollient with a medium to light skin feel.
Decyl Cocoate is fully based on renewable sources.
The ester is produced by a unique, eco-efficient process fully running on renewable energy leading to an improved impact on global warming by 100% lower CO2 footprint compared to conventional chemical production.
Decyl Cocoate belongs to the group of natural derivatives, it is exactly an ester of Decyl alcohol and fatty acids of coconut oil.
Decyl Cocoate is in the form of a pale yellow liquid with a characteristic odor.
Decyl Cocoate has a low viscosity, which is why it is suitable for less dense creams.
In cosmetics, it acts as an emulsifier, improving the consistency and spreadability of other substances.
Decyl Cocoate creates a light protective film on the skin.
Decyl Cocoate is usually part of skin creams, shower gels, lip balms, decorative cosmetics and more.
Decyl Cocoate is a light emollient of natural origin. Gives a light texture, improves the application and utility properties of the product.
Moisturizes and softens the skin without weighing it down.
Adds radiance to the skin, regenerates and protects it.
A stable and safe emollient, obtained from renewable raw materials.
There is very little information available about Decyl Cocoate.
According to EWG, it is an ester of Decyl Alcohol & fatty acids derived from coconut oil; Often added to skin care products for its moisturizing and softening effects.
Decyl Cocoate is an ester of decyl alcohol and fatty acids of coconut oil ( Cocos Nucifera Oil).
Decyl Cocoate is a slightly yellowish liquid with a characteristic odor, low viscosity, suitable for less dense creams.
In cosmetics, it acts as an emollient, improves the spreadability of products and creates a light protective film on the skin. The composition is very close to the esters naturally found in sebum. Decyl Cocoate is commonly found in skin creams, but can also be found in lip balms, shower products and decorative cosmetics.

What Is Decyl Cocoate?
Coconut Oil, also called Cocos Nucifera (Coconut) Oil, is a pale-yellow, semisolid, edible oil. Coconut Acid is a mixture of fatty acids derived from Coconut Oil.
Other ingredients made from Coconut Oil and/or Coconut Acid that may be used in cosmetics and personal care products include: Hydrogenated Coconut Oil, Hydrogenated Coconut Acid, Coconut Alcohol, Butylene Glycol Cocoate, Caprylic/Capric/Coco Glycerides, Cocoglycerides, Coconut Oil Decyl Esters, Decyl Cocoate, Ethylhexyl Cocoate, Isodecyl Cocoate, Lauryl Cocoate, Methyl Cocoate, Octyldodecyl Cocoate, Pentaerythrityl Cocoate, Tridecyl Cocoate, Magnesium Cocoate, Potassium Cocoate, Sodium Cocoate, Ammonium Cocomonoglyceride Sulfate, Sodium Cocomonoglyceride Sulfate, Hydrogenated Coco-Glycerides, Potassium Hydrogenated Cocoate and Sodium Hydrogenated Cocoate.
Among these ingredients made from Coconut Oil and/or its fatty acids, Coconut Oil is the most frequently used in the formulation of cosmetic and personal care products.
Coconut Oil can be found in many categories of cosmetic and personal care products including bath products, eye makeup, hair care products, shaving creams, suntan products, skin care products and lipsticks.
