Application
UniProtect 1,2-OD is a multifunctional cosmetic ingredient widely used in various skincare and personal care formulations. It is a derivative of caprylic acid, safe and non-toxic for topical use.

It provides inherent preservative effects for most cosmetics and can be used as an alternative to parabens or other undesirable preservatives.
In cleansing products, UniProtect 1,2-OD also exhibits thickening and foam-stabilizing properties. Additionally, it acts as a moisturizer, improving the hydration level of the skin and helping to maintain moisture, making the skin feel soft, smooth, and plump. This makes it an ideal ingredient for creams, lotions, and serums.
In summary, caprylic acid is a versatile cosmetic ingredient that can be used in a variety of skincare and personal care products, making it an essential component in many cosmetic formulations.
