Glycerol Dioleate (Glyceryl Dioleate) Supplier Malaysia
- Also known as
- Glyceryl Dioleate
- GDO
Glycerol dioleate is a dioleate-rich ester of glycerol and oleic acid offered for personal-care and technical formulation enquiries in Malaysia. It is also called glyceryl dioleate and GDO. Commercial grades are generally pale yellow to amber oily liquids or soft pastes, with appearance influenced by ester composition and temperature.
Buyers should define the required ester profile because commercial glycerol dioleate can contain varying proportions of monoesters, diesters and triesters. Personal-care grades are selected for emolliency, co-emulsification and formulation quality, while technical grades may be specified by acid value, iodine value, colour and lubricity performance.
Applications include creams, lotions, cleansing systems, lipophilic emulsions and speciality dispersions. Suitable technical grades are also considered for process lubricity, friction modification, antistatic duties and polymer or metalworking formulations. Glycerol dioleate is not the same product as glycerol monooleate, glycerol monostearate or free oleic acid.
Send the intended application, required ester profile, target specification, quantity and delivery location with the enquiry. A 25 kg packing option can be requested, while current packing, documentation, delivery route and timing are confirmed with the quotation.

- Grade
- personal-care grade, technical emulsifier grade, lubricant and process-additive grade
- Appearance
- pale yellow to amber oily liquid or soft paste, depending on composition and temperature

Glycerol Dioleate applications
Common questions about glycerol dioleate
Is glycerol dioleate the same as glyceryl dioleate?
Yes. Glyceryl dioleate is another name for glycerol dioleate, and GDO is a common abbreviation. Commercial products can differ in ester distribution, so the required diester content and related specification should still be stated.
Is glycerol dioleate the same as glycerol monooleate?
No. Glycerol dioleate is a diester-rich material, while glycerol monooleate is based mainly on the monoester. Their polarity, emulsification behaviour and specification targets differ, so they should be requested separately.
Which glycerol dioleate grade should I request?
Personal-care grades focus on formulation quality and appearance, while technical grades may be selected by ester distribution, acid value, iodine value and lubricity requirements. Send the end use and target limits with the enquiry.
What specifications are useful for a glycerol dioleate quotation?
Buyers commonly state the desired ester profile, acid value, iodine value, colour, water and physical form. Exact limits depend on the grade, so an existing specification is more useful than relying on a generic product name.
Can glycerol dioleate be requested in 25 kg packing?
A 25 kg option is recorded for this product family. Include the preferred pack and total quantity in the enquiry, and current packing availability will be confirmed with the quotation.
