Glyceryl caprylate is a colorless, odorless, low-viscosity, transparent liquid. neutral. Easy to mix with ethanol, isopropyl alcohol, chloroform, glycerin and other solvents. It is also soluble in many lipid substances in cosmetics. It is stable at low temperatures and is still transparent below 0oC (freezing point -10oC), with an HLB value of 12.5. It is made from coconut oil, palm kernel oil, Litsea cubeba oil and other oils and fats as raw materials. After hydrolysis, fractionation and cutting, caprylic acid, capric acid and glycerol are esterified, and then deacidified, dehydrated and decolorized.
Glyceryl octanoatecan lower cholesterol:
Glyceryl octanoate has been tested in reducing cholesterol. Proof: The total cholesterol of animals fed octanoic acid glyceride is 50% lower than that of animals fed ordinary oil. Taking octanoic acid glycerin is beneficial to lowering blood lipids and cholesterol. Because it is absorbed and metabolized as easily and quickly as glucose, it can quickly increase calories. It has little tendency to be stored as fat and does not cause obesity. It is suitable for consumption and is especially suitable for children’s food and diet food.
In addition, octanoic acid glyceryl ester has suitable mutual solubility and solubility for oil and water. It has its unique dissolving effect on drugs and parenteral injections. Scientists have discovered that neodecanoic acid glycerol is also an excellent dissolving agent for cholesterol and can dissolve cholesterol stones in patients.
