Application Areas
1. Cosmetics Manufacturing: Docosanol is primarily used as a solid emollient and fatting agent, which moisturizes the skin and imparts a smooth texture. It also has excellent viscosity stabilization properties, forming a film on hair to provide volumizing effects. In color cosmetics, docosanol functions as a moisturizer, solubilizer, and pigment dispersant, and is also used as a viscosity regulator.
2. Pharmaceutical Industry: Docosanol raw material and its cream are novel anti-herpes virus agents, mainly used for the treatment of recurrent orofacial herpes simplex.

Packaging
Kraft Bags

Storage Conditions: Generally stable under normal storage conditions. However, specific storage conditions may vary depending on the product's purity, packaging, and intended use. To avoid potential degradation or contamination, it is recommended to store docosanol in a dry, cool, well-ventilated area away from fire and heat sources. Containers should be tightly sealed to prevent moisture or other impurities from entering. Shelf Life: 2 years (unopened)
