Description

2-[2-[2-(Tetradecyloxy)Ethoxy]Ethoxy]Ethyl Laurate is a non-ionic surfactant and emollient ester derived from lauric acid and a polyethoxylated fatty alcohol. This compound matters for formulators seeking a high-performance, multifunctional ingredient that provides excellent emulsification, skin feel, and lubricity. It is needed by manufacturers in the personal care, cosmetics, and industrial lubricant sectors for creating stable, high-quality formulations.

Application

• Primary emollient and skin-conditioning agent in cosmetic creams, lotions, and sunscreens.
• Key non-ionic surfactant and emulsifier for oil-in-water (O/W) emulsions in personal care products.
• Functional ingredient in hair care formulations such as conditioners and styling products for enhanced combability and shine.
• Lubricant and plasticizer in specialty industrial applications and polymer processing.
• Used as a co-emulsifier and stabilizer in pharmaceutical ointments and topical delivery systems.
• Base material for synthesizing more complex ester derivatives with tailored properties.
• Component in textile auxiliaries and fiber lubricants.
• Additive in cleaning and polishing formulations to improve spreading and gloss.
