Ethyl laurate is an ester derived from lauric acid and ethanol. It has a variety of uses, especially in the food, cosmetic and pharmaceutical sectors.
1. Ethyl laurate CAS 106-33-2 is used as a flavoring agent and food additive. It can impart pleasant taste and aroma to various foods.
2. Due to its emollient properties, ethyl laurate is often used in cosmetic and personal care product formulations such as lotions, creams, and shampoos. Ethyl laurate helps improve the texture and spread of these products.
3. Ethyl laurate CAS 106-33-2 can be used as a solvent or carrier in drug formulations to help improve the solubility and bioavailability of certain active ingredients.
4. Ethyl laurate can act as a surfactant or emulsifier in various industrial applications, helping to stabilize emulsions and improve the mixing of oil-based and water-based products.
5. Ethyl laurate CAS 106-33-2 can be used in research related to fatty acid esters and their properties.
To properly store ethyl laurate and ensure its stability.
1. Store ethyl laurate CAS 106-33-2 in airtight containers to prevent contamination and evaporation. Typically glass or high-density polyethylene containers are used.
2. Store the compound in a cool, dry place. The usual temperature range is 15-25°C (59-77°F). Avoid exposure to high temperatures, which may cause degradation.
3. Although ethyl laurate CAS 106-33-2 is relatively stable, it is recommended to store it in a dark place or in an opaque container to minimize light exposure.
4. Make sure the storage area is dry as moisture can affect the quality of the compound.
5. Clearly label containers with the compound name, concentration, and any relevant hazard information.
6. Follow any specific safety guidelines provided in the Ethyl Laurate CAS 106-33-2 Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS). Use appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) when handling this compound.
7. When disposing of any unused or discarded materials, please follow local regulations and guidelines regarding hazardous waste disposal.
