In the personal care and pharmaceutical industries, formulators are increasingly turning to multifunctional ingredients that offer both performance and consumer-friendly profiles. Batyl alcohol, a naturally occurring alkylglycerol, has emerged as a sought-after component in skin care, hair care, and topical drug delivery systems due to its remarkable emollient, emulsifying, and skin-repair properties. Unlike many synthetic alternatives, it aligns with the growing demand for bio-based and biocompatible raw materials.

Batyl alcohol is chemically known as 1-O-octadecyl-sn-glycerol, a long-chain fatty alcohol ether of glycerol. It was first isolated from shark liver oil and later found in human bone marrow and other mammalian tissues. This natural origin, combined with its excellent safety profile, makes it a preferred choice for high-end cosmetic and pharmaceutical formulations. As a waxy solid at room temperature, it imparts a rich, non-greasy feel and helps stabilize emulsions.

LyvBio supplies Batyl alcohol with a minimum purity of 98% (HPLC), ensuring consistent quality for critical applications. Our product is manufactured under strict GMP conditions and undergoes rigorous quality control to meet the demanding standards of the personal care and pharmaceutical sectors. Whether you are developing a premium anti-aging cream or a specialized dermatological ointment, Batyl alcohol delivers reliable performance.

In this product profile, we delve into the key aspects of Batyl alcohol, from its chemical identity to its functional benefits and quality specifications. Our aim is to provide formulators and procurement specialists with the essential information needed to evaluate this versatile ingredient for their next project.

Product Overview & Composition

Batyl alcohol is a chiral alkylglycerol with the molecular formula C21H44O3 and a molecular weight of 344.57 g/mol. It consists of a glycerol backbone with an octadecyl (stearyl) group attached via an ether linkage at the sn-1 position. This structure confers unique surface-active properties, making it an effective emulsifier and co-emulsifier in oil-in-water systems. The compound is typically synthesized through the reaction of stearyl alcohol with glycidol or via enzymatic methods, yielding a high-purity product that is chemically identical to the natural form.

Commercially available Batyl alcohol is a white to off-white waxy solid with a melting point range of 68-72°C. It is practically insoluble in water but soluble in ethanol, chloroform, and hot methanol. Its lipophilic nature allows it to integrate seamlessly into lipid-based formulations, where it can enhance texture, stability, and skin feel. The ingredient is also known for its ability to form lamellar structures, which can improve the barrier function of the skin.

Key Applications

• Skin Care: Batyl alcohol acts as an emollient and skin-conditioning agent, improving hydration and elasticity. It is commonly found in anti-aging creams, lotions, and serums.
• Hair Care: In shampoos and conditioners, it provides conditioning benefits, reduces static, and enhances combability.
• Pharmaceutical Topicals: Used as an emulsifier and penetration enhancer in ointments, creams, and transdermal patches.
• Color Cosmetics: Imparts a smooth, creamy texture to lipsticks, foundations, and concealers.
• Sun Care: Enhances the spreadability and water resistance of sunscreens.
• Niche Industrial: Employed as a lubricant and release agent in specialized industrial processes.
