Product Description of Trihydroxymethylpropyl Trioleate CAS#11138-60-6
This compound is insoluble in water while demonstrating good solubility in a variety of organic solvents such as ethanol, ether, and acetone. It maintains strong chemical stability under standard conditions; however, decomposition or reactive behavior may occur when subjected to elevated temperatures, strong acids, or strong alkaline environments.
In terms of lubrication, it delivers outstanding performance by effectively reducing friction and wear in mechanical systems. Its high viscosity combined with a high viscosity index ensures minimal viscosity fluctuation across temperature variations, enabling consistent and dependable lubrication throughout a broad spectrum of operating conditions.

Product Application of Trihydroxymethylpropyl Trioleate CAS#11138-60-6
Trihydroxymethylpropyl Trioleate (CAS# 11138-60-6), also known as TMPTO, is a high-performance synthetic ester widely used across industrial lubrication and personal care applications. In the lubricant industry, it serves as an ideal base oil for fire-resistant HFDU hydraulic fluids, biodegradable chain saw oils, and marine engine oils, thanks to its high viscosity index, excellent thermal stability, and biodegradation rate exceeding 90%. It is also extensively used as a lubricity additive in metalworking fluids, including cold rolling oils, wire drawing oils, and cutting fluids, where it effectively reduces friction, lowers cutting temperatures, and extends tool life. Additionally, it finds application as a textile lubricant, plastic processing aid, and as a lightweight emollient in cosmetic formulations such as creams, lotions, shampoos, and body washes.
