"Octyldecyl" describes 2-octyldodecanol as the alcoholic component. Oleates are salts/esters of oleic acid (cis-9-octadecenoic acid). Octyldecyl oleates are the esters between 2-octyldodecanol and oleic acid and act as emulsifiers (change the interfacial tension of liquids such as water and oil so that they can be mixed together).
