It is a mixture of monoacylglycerols, primarily consisting of mono-O-octanoylglycerol and mono-O-decanoylglycerol, with varying amounts of di- and triacylglycerols. This mixture is obtained through the direct esterification of glycerol with caprylic (octanoic) and capric (decanoic) acids. It appears as a colorless or slightly yellow, oily liquid or soft mass, which is practically insoluble in water, highly soluble in ethanol (96%), and freely soluble in methylene chloride.
