Product Details
Isododecane is a clear, colorless, volatile, and odorless liquid that delivers a lightweight, non-greasy feel with minimal residue and excellent solvency. With a viscosity of approximately 1 centipoise, it is widely used in hair care, sun care, antiperspirants, color cosmetics, mascaras, and fragrance products.
As a mixture of isomers, isododecane also functions as a reaction medium in polymerization processes. Additionally, it serves as an emollient and solvent in skincare formulations due to its high spreadability, low viscosity, and low density. It is frequently used in anti-aging serums and is a key ingredient in various cosmetic products such as eyeliners, hair sprays, perfumes, conditioners, and lotions.
Isododecane has the molecular formula C₁₂H₂₆ and a molecular weight of 170.33.

Product Application
Isododecane is a highly effective solvent widely used in cosmetics and personal care formulations. It provides a lightweight feel and improves product spreadability. Common applications include mascaras, eyeliners, lip products, makeup removers, face creams, pre-shave and aftershave products, sun care items, deodorant sprays, and hair care products.
Under normal usage conditions, isododecane remains stable. However, it is flammable in both liquid and vapor forms. Its vapors are heavier than air, allowing them to spread along the ground or accumulate in low or enclosed spaces. When heated to decomposition, it may release carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and other gases or fumes. To ensure safe handling, avoid exposure to heat, open flames, electrostatic discharge, and other potential ignition sources.
