Description

Polyglyceryl-10 Distearate is a high-performance, non-ionic surfactant and emulsifier derived from natural fatty acids and polyglycerol. This versatile compound is valued for its excellent stabilizing, thickening, and conditioning properties, making it a key ingredient in formulations requiring stable oil-in-water emulsions and rich textures. It is primarily utilized by manufacturers in the personal care, cosmetics, and food industries to enhance product performance and sensory appeal.

Application

• Primary emulsifier and stabilizer in cosmetic creams, lotions, and sun care products.
• Texture enhancer and opacifying agent in shampoos, conditioners, and liquid soaps.
• Co-emulsifier in food-grade applications, such as whipped toppings and bakery emulsions.
• Viscosity modifier and pearlizing agent in personal care cleansers.
• Key ingredient in pharmaceutical ointments and topical delivery systems for its emulsifying properties.
• Used in industrial applications as a dispersing agent and lubricant additive.
