Dipropylene Glycol: A Core Fragrance Industry Solvent with Multifunctional and High-Adaptability Advantages

The core advantage of Dipropylene Glycol lies in its unique molecular structure that is highly adapted to fragrance formulations, and it also provides multi-dimensional functional support for personal care products, making it far superior to traditional solvents. As the core solvent for the fragrance industry, its action mechanism is precisely targeted at the core demands of fragrance formulation and application:

By virtue of its amphiphilic molecular properties, it acts as an ideal "oil-water bridge agent" for fragrance raw materials, realizing uniform dispersion and stable combination of various fragrance components in the formulation, avoiding the separation of fragrance and solvent and ensuring the consistency of fragrance taste. At the same time, its low volatility characteristic can slow down the rapid volatilization of volatile fragrance notes (top notes) in the fragrance, and make the medium and base notes release in an orderly manner, forming a stable fragrance film on the skin or in the space, thereby significantly improving the fragrance retention and layering of fragrance products.

Unlike traditional single-function solvents, DPG does not damage the skin barrier while exerting its fragrance solvent effect, and can capture water molecules on the skin surface through hydrogen bond action to achieve a mild moisturizing effect. It can also adjust the viscosity of cosmetic formulations, improve the emulsification stability of the system, and realize the dual value of "core fragrance solvent" and "formulation optimization auxiliary material".

 

Wide Applications in Personal Care, with Fragrance as the Core

Thanks to its excellent performance with fragrance as the core advantage, Dipropylene Glycol has become a "star raw material" in the fragrance and personal care industry, and its application is centered on fragrance products and extended to all types of personal care products, fully exerting its multi-functional value:

*Pure Fragrance Products: As the main solvent for perfumes, colognes and fragrance oils (the addition ratio is often more than 50%), it dissolves fragrance raw materials efficiently, improves fragrance retention and layering, and reduces the irritation of high-concentration fragrance to the skin.

*Aromatherapy Products: Used in aromatherapy liquids, scented candles and air fresheners, it dissolves solid and liquid fragrance raw materials, ensures the stable and continuous release of fragrance, and has good compatibility with wax, alcohol and other substrates in aromatherapy products.

*Fragrance-Type Personal Care Products: Applied in scented body lotions, fragrance shampoos, shower gels and hand creams, it not only solubilizes the added fragrance and maintains long-lasting fragrance of the product, but also exerts a mild moisturizing effect, improving the skin and hair care experience.

*General Cosmetics: Used in skin care products (toners, creams), hair care products (conditioners, hair masks) and makeup products (foundation, lipstick), it acts as a moisturizer, viscosity regulator and formulation stabilizer, improving the texture and stability of products while matching the added fragrance ingredients.

Significant Advantages Over Traditional Fragrance Solvents and Polyols

Compared with traditional fragrance solvents (ethanol, propylene glycol) and conventional polyol raw materials (glycerin), Dipropylene Glycol's core competitiveness is concentrated in the fragrance application core and extended to the whole formulation system, with advantages in four key dimensions:

*Unmatched Fragrance Adaptability: At the same addition ratio, its solubilization effect on various fragrance bases is better, and the fragrance retention time is significantly longer than ethanol and propylene glycol; it can perfectly present the layering of top, middle and base notes, meeting the high-end demand of the fragrance industry for fragrance quality.

*Leading Gentle Safety Profile: Verified by multiple clinical studies, its irritation to skin and mucous membranes is far lower than traditional solvents such as propylene glycol; even at high concentrations, it will not cause redness, dryness or discomfort, making it suitable for sensitive skin and long-term contact with the skin.

*Stronger Formulation Compatibility: Solves the problems of traditional solvents that are prone to stratification, precipitation and discoloration in complex cosmetic formulations, and can be mixed with all types of raw materials in any proportion, simplifying the production process of fragrance and personal care products and reducing formulation development costs.

*Multi-functional Integration: It is not only a core fragrance solvent, but also has the functions of moisturizing, viscosity regulation and formulation stabilization, realizing "one material with multiple uses" in personal care products, reducing the types of raw materials added in the formulation and optimizing the product cost performance.
