Jojoba Oil
Simmondsia Chinensis
Jojoba oil is a liquid wax ester that is extracted from the seeds of the jojoba plant (Simmondsia chinensis). Chemically, it is composed of a mixture of straight-chain wax esters and fatty acids, primarily composed of eicosenoic acid and erucic acid. Jojoba oil is highly stable and resistant to oxidation, making it useful in a variety of industrial and cosmetic applications. It is also commonly used as a carrier oil in aromatherapy and as a massage oil. Its unique chemical properties make it an effective emollient and moisturizer, making it useful in skincare formulations. Additionally, its viscosity and lubricity make it useful in lubricant formulations, and it is also used as a base oil in certain types of paints and coatings.
