Patent number: 4659573Abstract: This invention relates to a substitute for mineral oil in toiletry and cosmetics. In particular it relates to blends of esters which match the viscosity and feel of mineral oil. Specifically, it relates to ester blends which include tridecyl trimellitate.Tridecyl trimellitate ("TDTM") is the ester of tridecyl alcohol and trimellitic acid, and has recently been offered for use to the cosmetics industry.It has surprisingly been found that by blending tridecyl trimellitate with other esters, the viscosity and feel of mineral oil can be matched, the resulting product being a substitute for mineral oil in toiletry and cosmetic compositions.Type: GrantFiled: February 14, 1985Date of Patent: April 21, 1987Assignee: Lipo Chemicals, Inc.Inventors: Louis B.
