Description

Ethoxylated (20 Moles) Methyl Glucoside Sesquistearate is a high-performance, non-ionic surfactant derived from renewable glucose and stearic acid. This compound matters for formulators seeking a mild, effective emulsifier and solubilizer with excellent skin compatibility and a favorable environmental profile. It is needed by manufacturers in the personal care, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical industries for creating stable, elegant emulsions and cleansing products.

Application

• Primary Emulsifier for oil-in-water (O/W) creams, lotions, and milky cleansers in skincare.
• Co-emulsifier & Stabilizer in complex cosmetic formulations to enhance texture and shelf-life.
• Solubilizing Agent for fragrances, essential oils, and lipophilic active ingredients in clear gels and toners.
• Mild Surfactant Base in baby care products, sensitive skin formulations, and sulfate-free cleansing systems.
• Pharmaceutical Creams & Ointments as a non-irritating emulsifier for topical drug delivery systems.
• Hair Care Conditioners to improve manageability and provide a soft, non-greasy feel.
