Exploring the mystery of glycerol tris (ethylhexanoate) ester
Glycerol tris (ethylhexanoate) ester structural formula:

Glycerol tris (ethylhexanoic acid) ester is formed by the esterification of three hydroxyl groups on glycerol and three carboxyl groups on three ethylhexanoic acid catalyzed by acid or metal oxides. It is usually a colorless, odorless, transparent liquid with low volatility and good stability. It is alsoGTCCThe upgraded product, but due to its shorter molecular chain, it isGTCCMore breathable, better skin feel, more frost resistant and stable, it is a relatively perfect beauty oil.
