C12-15 Alkyl Benzoate Supplier in Malaysia
- Also known as
- Benzoic Acid C12-15 Alkyl Esters
- Benzoic Acid, C12-15-Alkyl Esters
C12-15 alkyl benzoate supplier in Malaysia for personal-care, cleaning and industrial formulation buyers. It is a clear, oil-soluble mixture of benzoic acid esters made with C12-15 alkyl alcohols and is selected for light emollience, lubricity, oil-phase solvency and formulation compatibility.
Cosmetic emollient grades serve creams, lotions, sunscreen, colour cosmetics, deodorant and hair-care products, while low-colour options suit visually sensitive systems. Technical grades support selected polishes, cleaners, lubricants and polymer formulations where the exact ester composition is specified.
Buyers commonly compare acid value, saponification value, moisture, colour, odour and viscosity. C12-15 alkyl benzoate is not interchangeable with benzyl benzoate, dipropylene glycol dibenzoate or another generic benzoate ester merely because the products share part of their name.

Common questions about C12-15 alkyl benzoate
What is C12-15 alkyl benzoate?
It is a mixture of benzoic acid esters made with C12-15 alkyl alcohols. The chain-length range is part of the product identity, so it should not be treated as a generic name for every alkyl benzoate ester.
What does C12-15 alkyl benzoate do in personal-care formulations?
It is commonly used as a light emollient, oil-phase carrier and dispersing aid for pigments or oil-soluble components. It can reduce the heavy feel of richer oils, but the final sensory profile depends on the complete formulation.
Is C12-15 alkyl benzoate water soluble?
It is an oil-soluble ester rather than a water-phase ingredient. Emulsions need a suitable emulsifier system, and the formulator should check compatibility with the oils, filters, pigments, surfactants and other ingredients in use.
Is C12-15 alkyl benzoate the same as benzyl benzoate?
No. C12-15 alkyl benzoate is a mixture of long-chain alkyl esters, while benzyl benzoate is a separate single ester with a different structure and application profile. They require separate specifications and quotations.
Can C12-15 alkyl benzoate be used in sunscreen or colour cosmetics?
It is used as an emollient and dispersing carrier in selected sunscreen and colour-cosmetic systems. Its inclusion does not establish finished-product performance; the formulator must evaluate filter or pigment dispersion, stability and sensory behaviour in the complete formula.
Which specifications matter when buying C12-15 alkyl benzoate?
State the intended formulation and targets for appearance, colour, odour, acid value, saponification value, viscosity, moisture and ester composition. List the required documents so the offered grade can be checked against the need.
How do I request a C12-15 alkyl benzoate price in Malaysia?
Provide the required grade, specification, application, quantity and delivery location. Packing, documentation, delivery details and price validity are confirmed with the quotation.
