GTCC is a mixed triester of medium carbon fatty acids in glycerol and vegetable oil. It is a colorless, odorless, low viscosity, lipophilic softener with high antioxidant properties. In cosmetics, GTCC can replace a variety of oils, as a softening agent and fat rich agent used, can also be used as a carrier and diluent added to active preparations or sterols and other conditioning agents. Cosmetics using GTCC are free of antioxidants and other stabilizers and do not cause adverse side effects.

Safety data of capric glyceride:
GTCC has been included in GB2760-96, GB12493-90 food additives classification and code standards; It has been widely used in food, medicine, cosmetics and other industries and has been proven to have no irritation to the human body.

Octyl capric acid glyceride Application:
GTCC is widely used in sunscreens, creams and lotions. Post sun protective cream and lotion; Used for hair conditioning oil, cream and head oil, can make hair bright, smooth and easy to comb; Bath oil; Skin care oil and nutrient solution; Facial cleansers, creams and lotions; Baby skin oils, creams and lotions; Cream, stick, medicine. Make the skin lubricated and shiny, nutrients are easily absorbed by the skin, and play a good role in the uniform and delicate makeup.
GTCC has low viscosity and can be used as the base material of moisturizing factor, stabilizer of cosmetics, antifreeze and homogenizer.
This product can also be used in lipstick, lip balm, shaving cream to change the dispersion and gloss of cosmetics.
