| Common Name | Glycerol trihexanoate |
|---|
| Description | Glycerol trihexanoate, also known as glycerol tricaproic acid or 1,2,3-tricaproylglycerol, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as triacylglycerols. These are glycerides consisting of three fatty acid chains covalently bonded to a glycerol molecule through ester linkages. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on Glycerol trihexanoate. |
