Palmityl dodecanoate is a fatty acid ester that functions as an emollient and thickening agent in various personal care products. It acts by forming a protective barrier on the skin′s surface, preventing moisture loss and keeping the skin hydrated. At the molecular level, it interacts with the skin′s natural lipids, helping to maintain the skin′s natural barrier function. Palmityl Dodecanoate also contributes to the smooth and creamy texture of skincare formulations, enhancing their spreadability and overall sensory experience.
