Description

Polyglyceryl-10 Didecanoate is a high-purity, non-ionic surfactant and emulsifier derived from polyglycerol and decanoic acid. This versatile compound is valued for its excellent solubilizing, stabilizing, and conditioning properties in demanding formulations. It is essential for manufacturers in the personal care, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical industries seeking high-performance, skin-friendly ingredients.

Application

• Primary emulsifier and stabilizer in skin creams, lotions, and sun care products.
• Solubilizer for fragrances, essential oils, and active ingredients in clear gels and serums.
• Conditioning agent and emollient in hair care formulations such as shampoos and conditioners.
• Key component in pharmaceutical topical preparations for enhanced drug delivery and stability.
• Used in decorative cosmetics (e.g., foundations, mascaras) for improved texture and application.
• Base ingredient for high-quality, mild surfactant systems in baby care and sensitive skin products.
