IOI Oleo GmbH launches 100% natural, Witarix ® MCT C8 (Tricaprylin) and MCT C8 Pure Coconut as a new addition to their Triglycerides for Pesonal Care .
This versatile ingredient is 100% natural, colorless liquid with low viscosity. Because of its high polarity it’s perfectly suited for use as a solvent/ dispersing agent for pigments and uV filters in color cosmetics, self-tanning and sunscreen products, producing good spreadability and a pleasant skin feel.
When used as an emollient, Tricaprylin initially has an oily and rich skin feel (like MCT oil), but after absorption, it leaves a very light, non-oily skin feel that’s strikingly silky and smooth—an absolute Sensory Transformer!
Recommended concentrations between 5% and 40% allow formulators to develop amazing personal care and cosmetic concepts ranging from skin and hair care, to baby care, sun care and tanning, bath care, deodorants and intimate hygiene products, wet wipes, and color cosmetics.
The Witarix® MCT C8 grades are ECOCERT COSMOS approved and vegan, Kosher and Halal certified. They are available as RSPO-MB grade or palm free.
