Usage
Pharmaceutic aid (vehicle, oleaginous).
Isopropyl palmitate is an emollient and moisturizer, it also acts as a binder and solvent. Similar to isopropyl myristate, it is produced from the combination of palmitic acid (coconut or palm oil) and isopropyl alcohol. enzymes are able to metabolize this ingredient and studies do not show allergic reactions or toxicity. Some sources indicate comedogenicity potential.
Isopropyl palmitate is used to formulate and evaluate the suitability of pluronic lecithin organogels containing flurbiprofen for topical application and to characterize microemulsion systems of isopropyl palmitate, water and 2:1 Brij 97, and 1-butanol by different experimental techniques.
