Isostearic acid CAS 2724-58-5  is a general term for a mixture of C18 saturated branched chain fatty acids. Widely present in nature, many wax substances attached to the feathers of water birds are composed of fatty acids and alcohols with methyl branched chains. Some plant seeds also contain a certain amount of isostearic acid. Isostearic acid has both the characteristics of linear unsaturated fatty acids and some of the characteristics of saturated fatty acids. It is liquid at room temperature and has good antioxidant properties. Therefore, isostearic acid is an important chemical intermediate with good commercial value, and is widely used in fields such as lubricating oil base oils, metal cleaning agents, coatings, cosmetics, etc
