Isopropyl Myristate (IPM) CH047

Isopropyl Myristate (IPM) is an ester of isopropyl alcohol and myristic acid, commonly used in cosmetics and personal care products. It functions as a solvent, emulsifier, and penetration enhancer, helping other ingredients to be absorbed more effectively into the skin. IPM is often found in creams, lotions, deodorants, and hair care products, as it provides a smooth, non-greasy feel and enhances product spreadability. It is also used in formulations for its ability to dissolve and deliver active ingredients deeper into the skin, improving product performance.
