Sorbitan Caprylate

Other names: Sorbitan caprylate

Harm score: 2 (Derivatives of natural substances)


Sorbitan Caprylate, also known as Sorbitan Caprylate in English, is a special type of sorbitan and caprylic acid ester. It is a yellowish to light brown liquid with a specific odour. It is a chemical that can be found in a number of different body care products, including various types of soaps, shampoos, conditioners, and face creams. This substance is also used in some cleaning products, such as laundry detergents or fabric softeners.

Sorbitan caprylate is produced synthetically, but its basic ingredients are natural raw materials such as sorbitol and caprylic acid. This substance has the ability to retain moisture and improve the consistency of products and also acts as an emulsifier, helping to bind water and oil in products such as makeup or hand creams. Despite its synthetic origin, this substance generally does not cause skin irritation and is considered safe for human health. In cosmetics, it is rated as a mild and skin-friendly preservative that can prevent the growth of bacteria and yeast. When used in cleansers, it adds moisturizing and conditioning properties to products, while ensuring that the product is effective and cleans well. It also has the advantage of being biodegradable, which means it has a positive impact on the environment.
