Caprylic Acid
Description
Caprylic Acid is a naturally occurring saturated medium-chain fatty acid with eight carbon atoms (C8). It is a colorless to slightly yellow liquid with a mild odor, known for its antimicrobial, antifungal, and antiviral properties.
Caprylic Acid is used across a wide range of industries. In pharmaceuticals and dietary supplements, it serves as an active ingredient in formulations for gut health. It is also used in flavorings and food additives, cosmetics, and personal care products as an emollient or dispersing agent.
In industrial applications, Caprylic Acid is utilized in the manufacture of esters, plasticizers, lubricants, and metalworking fluids, and as a precursor in chemical synthesis for various esters and surfactants.
