Diisopropyl adipate (DIPA) is a multifunctional light, non-occlusive, non-oily emollient. Its very low viscosity results in excellent spreading properties, rapid absorbency and low residual tack on the skin. DIPA is an emulsifying agent and an excellent solubilising agent. It is widely used as high polarity API penetration enhancer and much more.
