Tricaprylin, also known as Kokun, is a fatty ester that is commonly found in vegetable oils. This substance is often used in the cosmetic industry and in food production for its many benefits and positive effects. Its neutral smell, significant moisture retention and comedogenicity (inability to clog pores) make it a popular ingredient in many products.

Tricaprylin is a popular ingredient in many cosmetic products such as creams, lotions, makeup bases, sunscreens, shampoos, conditioners and deodorants. This substance is not harmful to the skin, on the contrary, it helps to keep it hydrated and healthy. That is why it is widely used in creams for sensitive skin or in products for dry skin care. Some cosmetic products also use it as an emulsifier to help mix water and oil, making these products more pleasant to use and more effective. In the food industry, Tricaprylin is used as a stabilizer, emulsifier or as a humectant. It is also a component of some pharmaceutical products where it acts as a carrier for pharmaceutical substances.
