Isostearic acid (CAS: 2724-58-5) is a C18 branched saturated fatty acid. Its branched structure provides excellent oxidative stability, a low freezing point, and a light skin feel, making it useful as an emollient, emulsifier, and soap base alternative in cosmetics, as well as an intermediate for isostearate esters, plasticizers, and lubricants.
