Caprylic acid is one of the fatty acids found in coconut oil. It's a medium-chain fatty acid believed to have potent antibacterial, antifungal, and anti-inflammatory properties. These properties may make caprylic acid a helpful remedy for many conditions.
The mixture of 65 mol% capric acid and 35 mol% lauric acid (C–L acid) is a potential latent heat storage material. However, its melting temperature of is quite high for low-temperature thermal energy storage. Addition of pentadecane, with a melting point of , is proposed .
