1、Chemically composed of isoprene and two water molecules, isoprene glycol features one primary alcohol and one tertiary alcohol in its molecular structure. In cosmetics, it is widely used as a humectant, antimicrobial agent, solubilizer, and emollient, and also serves as a solvent in other fields. It is non-irritating to the skin and periocular area, exhibits excellent chemical and oxidative stability, and demonstrates strong compatibility with a wide range of cosmetic ingredients.

2、Compared to other polyols, isoprene glycol not only dissolves easily in water but also shows outstanding compatibility with oils and nonpolar solvents such as benzene. It delivers a light, nongreasy moisturizing feel.

3、Isoprene glycol offers excellent cleansing, dispersing, and solubilizing properties. It is soluble in both water and oil, imparting a smooth texture and effective hydration to the skin. With notable antimicrobial efficacy and high oil compatibility, it significantly improves hair manageability, shine, and moisture retention, while also helping to repair the hair surface and damaged areas. Isoprene glycol is a wellbalanced and proven versatile ingredient for cosmetic formulations.
