DESCRIPTION:
Isostearyl Alcohol is a mixture of branched chain 18 carbon aliphatic alcohols.
Isostearyl Alcohol is white, waxy solids. 

Isostearyl Alcohol is a clear liquid. 
Isostearyl Alcohol is the major components of Cetearyl Alcohol. 
Isostearyl Alcohol is the fatty alcohol and widely used in cosmetics and personal care products, especially in skin lotions and creams
16-methylheptadecan-1-ol is a long-chain primary fatty alcohol that is heptadecan-1-ol substituted by a hydroxy group at position 1 and a methyl group at position 16. 

Isostearyl Alcohol is functionally related to a heptadecan-1-ol. It derives from a hydride of a heptadecane.
Vegetable-based isostearyl alcohol derived from methyl-branched isostearic acid. 
Isostearyl Alcohol Provides damaged hair with softness.

Isostearyl Alcohol has very good spreading and refatting properties. 
Isostearyl Alcohol is Ideal for use in skin treatment products and as a fragrance carrier.
Isostearyl alcohol is a fatty alcohol or specialty alcohol that consists of 18 carbons in its molecular structure. 

Isostearyl Alcohol is also called isooctadecanol or isooctadecyl alcohol, and is derived from the reduction of isostearic acid.
Isostearyl Alcohol is Mainly used in personal care and cosmetics, isostearyl alcohol is primarily used as an anti-aging agent in cosmetics. 
However, Isostearyl Alcohol also acts as a viscosity booster, emulsifier, and pigment binder.

The global isostearyl alcohol market size is projected to expand at a moderate pace, and be primarily driven by abundant use in the personal care and cosmetics sector.
Its application as an emollient is expected to generate major revenue for the isostearyl alcohol market by the end of the forecast period (2020 to 2030), owing to high demand in different cosmetic products.


USES OF ISOSTEARYL ALCOHOL:
Stearyl alcohol, or 1-octadecanol, is an organic compound classified as a saturated fatty alcohol with the formula CH3(CH2)16CH2OH. 
Isostearyl Alcohol takes the form of white granules or flakes, which are insoluble in water. 
Isostearyl Alcohol has a wide range of uses as an ingredient in lubricants, resins, perfumes, and cosmetics. 
Isostearyl Alcohol is used as an emollient, emulsifier, and thickener in ointments, and is widely used as a hair coating in shampoos and hair conditioners. 

Stearyl heptanoate, the ester of stearyl alcohol and heptanoic acid (enanthic acid), is found in most cosmetic eyeliners. 
Isostearyl Alcohol has also found application as an evaporation suppressing monolayer when applied to the surface of water.
