Usage

General Description

Glycerides, C14-18 are fatty acid esters derived from glycerol and a mix of tetradecanoic, hexadecanoic, and octadecanoic acids. In common words, these are fats containing several different types of fatty acids, all containing between 14 and 18 carbon atoms. Glycerides, C14-18 can be found in a variety of items, ranging from food additives to cosmetic formulations, and are useful additives due to their high oxidative stability. They are typically used in topical skincare products due to their ability to replenish the skin's intracellular lipid barrier, resulting in a more effective hydration and a reduction in trans-epidermal water loss. These compounds are generally considered safe and are approved for use by regulatory organizations like the Food and Drug Administration in the U.S.
