Overview
Glyceryl Mono Undecylenate (GMU) also known as Undecylenic Acid Monoester with 1,2,3-Propanetriol is an ester of glycerol and undecylenic acid,
This product combines the moisturisation properties from glycerine with the antimicrobial properties of undecylenic acid.
GMU is a 100% vegetable oil derived ingredient since both the raw materials glycerol (derived from vegetable oils) and undecylenic acid (derived from castor oil) are plant based.
Uses of Glyceryl Mono Undecylenate
- GMU offers skin re-fatting for ultimate moisturzation and can be used as emollient & emulsifier in skin care products, moisturizer, liquid soap, sunscreen lotion, body washes & anti aging creams.
- It performs an important function to enhance the working ability of Cosmetic products as an cosmetic ingredient and hence is used for making Skin Care Products.
