Overview of Ethyl Oleate

 

Ethyl Oleate (CAS 111-62-6) is a transparent, translucent to pale yellow liquid that has a light, fat-like odor. It's an ester of ethyl oleic acid and ethanol that is renowned for its exceptional stability and skin absorption characteristics. Widely used in the pharmaceutical, cosmetic, fragrance, and chemical industries, Ethyl Oleate functions as an emollient, solubilizer, and carrier solvent.

 

Its compatibility with oils and alcohols allows smooth blending in perfumes, lotions, creams, and pharmaceutical solutions. Due to its low toxicity and high biocompatibility, it is also an essential component in drug delivery formulations and lubricant blends.

 

Available in bulk quantities, ChemicalBull offers high-purity Ethyl Oleate at competitive prices for industrial and commercial applications.

 

 

Applications of Ethyl Oleate

 

1. Pharmaceutical Industry

Ethyl Oleate is a preferred carrier solvent in injectable drug formulations because of its low toxicity, stability, and ability to enhance drug solubility and absorption.

It is commonly used in intramuscular and intravenous preparations, where safe and efficient delivery is essential.

 

2. Fragrance & Flavour Industry

In perfumery, Ethyl Oleate acts as an excellent solvent that improves the solubility of aromatic compounds like Dihydrojasmone and Linalyl Formate.

It helps produce smooth, long-lasting fragrance notes in perfumes, creams, lotions, and essential oil blends.

 

3. Cosmetics & Personal Care

As an emollient and moisturizer, Ethyl Oleate provides a soft, non-greasy texture in skin and hair care products such as lotions, serums, and conditioners.

It also improves texture uniformity and enhances the absorption of active ingredients in cosmetic formulations.

 

4. Industrial Applications

Ethyl Oleate acts as an additive to coatings and lubricants, which reduces friction and improves the smoothness of surfaces in manufacturing and processing industries.

Biodegradability, as well as the low environmental impact, make it ideal as an environmentally friendly formula for lubricants.

 

 

5. The Research & Laboratory Uses

In laboratory settings, Ethyl Oleate is used as a solvent as well as a reagent in chemical synthesis, testing analytical tests, and research on formulations, particularly when nonpolar solvent systems are needed.
