Trimethylolpropane Caprate/Caprylate Supplier in Malaysia
- Also known as
- TMP Caprylate/Caprate
Trimethylolpropane caprate/caprylate supplier for lubricant and personal-care buyers in Malaysia. This ester of trimethylolpropane with caprylic (C8) and capric (C10) acids is identified by CAS 11138-60-6 and often shortened to TMP caprylate/caprate.
Commercial material is a clear, colourless to pale yellow liquid supplied in lubricant and cosmetic grades. Grade choice turns on viscosity, pour point and purity, which are quoted against the specification you provide.
Lubricant formulators use it as a synthetic base oil for compressor, refrigeration and chain applications where low-temperature fluidity and low residue matter. Cosmetic formulators use the same ester family as a light, fast-spreading emollient.
