    Product Description

    Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride is a mixed ester of glycerol with predominantly caprylic and capric fatty acids. It is not a single defined molecule.

    CAS Number: 65381-09-1.

    EINECS: 265-724-3.

    Molecular formula: No single molecular formula – mixed C8/C10 triglycerides.

    A single molar mass is not applicable to this mixed ester.

    Density: confirm the current product-specific value.

    Physical form, appearance, and key quality limits: confirm the current product-specific specification.

    Packaging selection must match the offered material and destination requirements. Confirm the current option before quotation.

    The material is a mixture of caprylic- and capric-acid triglycerides; assess the offered material using the current product-specific specification.

    Typical formulation context

    Typical use: a mixed C8/C10 triglyceride evaluated as an emollient and carrier oil in cosmetic and personal-care formulations. Confirm composition and formulation compatibility.

    Confirm formulation compatibility for the intended application; do not infer a specific grade from the INCI identity.

    Confirm documentation availability and intended-market requirements before evaluating the offered material for formulation use.

    Food-use suitability is not established by this page and must be confirmed separately for any intended market.

    FAQ - Technical & Supply Chain

    • Q:

      Is Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride CAS 65381-09-1 a single fixed molecule?

      A: No. It is a mixture of medium-chain triglycerides, primarily based on caprylic and capric fatty acids. Supplier approval should use the agreed fatty-acid distribution and compendial or technical specification, not a single molecular formula.
    • Q:

      What is Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride used for?

      A: It is used mainly as an emollient, carrier oil and light-feel lipid in cosmetic and personal-care formulations, and in selected food or pharmaceutical applications where a suitable grade is approved. The required grade and documentation depend on the end market.
    • Q:

      Which tests are useful when qualifying Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride?

      A: Review the C8/C10 fatty-acid profile, acid value, saponification value, iodine value, hydroxyl value, water, peroxide value, color and density. Limits should match the intended formulation and the relevant pharmacopeial, food or cosmetic grade.
    • Q:

      Can one Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride grade be used for every application?

      A: Not automatically. Cosmetic, food and pharmaceutical uses may require different monograph compliance, manufacturing controls, traceability and supporting documents. State the market, dosage-form or formulation use and required standard before requesting a quotation.
    • Q:

      What are typical physical characteristics of Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride?

      A: It is commonly a colorless to pale-yellow, low-viscosity oily liquid that is practically odorless and tasteless. The relative density is typically near 0.94-0.96, and C8/C10-based grades have low iodine values and good oxidation stability compared with many unsaturated vegetable oils.
