Isododecane

Description

Isododecane is a lightweight, volatile hydrocarbon solvent widely used in cosmetic and personal care formulations. It is valued for its fast-evaporating nature and silky, non-greasy feel on the skin. After application, it quickly evaporates, leaving behind a smooth, dry finish.

Because of its excellent spreading ability, Isododecane helps improve the texture, glide, and spreadability of cosmetic products. It is commonly used in formulations that require a lightweight, long-lasting, and non-oily feel.
