Lauryl Alcohol

Lauryl Alcohol

Lauryl Alcohol (C12) is a long-chain fatty alcohol derived from natural sources such as coconut oil or palm kernel oil. It appears as a white, waxy solid with a mild odor. Lauryl Alcohol is widely used in personal care, cosmetic, and industrial applications as a surfactant intermediate, emulsifier, and co-emulsifier. Its shorter chain length (C12) provides excellent solubility, foaming, and cleansing properties.
