MONOBEHENIN CAS 30233-64-8

What is MONOBEHENIN CAS 30233-64-8?

MONOBEHENIN CAS 30233-64-8 is a monoacylglycerol derived from the esterification of glycerol with behenic acid. It typically appears as a white to off-white solid and is valued for its emulsifying, emollient, and formulation properties in pharmaceutical tablets, controlled release systems, cosmetic products, and other material applications requiring stable lipid-based excipients.
