Description

Sucrose Ricinoleate is a non-ionic, biodegradable surfactant derived from the esterification of sucrose and ricinoleic acid. This versatile compound is valued for its excellent emulsifying, conditioning, and solubilizing properties, making it a key ingredient in high-performance formulations. It is primarily sought after by manufacturers in the personal care, cosmetics, and pharmaceutical industries for creating mild, stable, and effective products.

Application

• Primary emulsifier and co-emulsifier in cosmetic creams, lotions, and sunscreens.
• Skin conditioning agent and emollient in lotions, makeup, and shaving products.
• Solubilizer for fragrances, essential oils, and active ingredients in clear gels and aqueous formulations.
• Key component in mild, sulfate-free cleansing systems for shampoos and body washes.
• Stabilizer and texture enhancer in pharmaceutical ointments and topical delivery systems.
• Additive in industrial applications requiring biodegradable surfactants, such as agrochemicals and lubricants.

Quality Control

Our Sucrose Ricinoleate is produced under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing to ensure it meets precise specifications for identity, purity, and performance. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) documenting key parameters is available for every shipment to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can affect product quality.
