Miglyol® 810
Miglyol® 810 is a medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) derived from plant-based sources such as coconut and palm kernel oils. They are composed primarily of caprylic (C8) and capric (C10) fatty acids, with Miglyol® 810 having a higher proportion of C8 (~70:30) compared to Miglyol® 812 (~60:40), resulting in slightly lower viscosity and faster spreadability for Miglyol® 810. Clear, virtually colorless liquid of neutral odor and taste. Neutral, stable oil, penetration enhancer, drug carrier, solvent, for oral and dermal formulation.
