Product Introduction

Ceteth-60 is an emulsifying agent commonly used in cosmetic and personal care products. It helps create stable emulsions by reducing the surface tension between oil and water phases. This ingredient is most often found in creams, lotions, and other formulations that require a smooth and consistent texture. Its ability to blend various ingredients makes it an essential component in many skincare products.

Production Process

The production of Ceteth-60 involves the ethoxylation of cetyl alcohol, which is achieved through a chemical reaction with ethylene oxide. This process results in a mixture that contains a series of ethylene glycol polyether derivatives, with Ceteth-60 representing the specific structure with approximately 60 moles of ethylene oxide. The product is then purified through a series of separation and filtration processes to ensure the removal of any impurities, leading to a final product that meets industry standards.

Efficacy and Function

Ceteth-60 functions effectively as an emulsifier, helping to maintain the stability of oil and water mixtures in cosmetic formulations. It provides a smooth and creamy texture to products, enhancing their spreadability on the skin. Additionally, it offers moisturizing benefits by creating a protective barrier that helps retain moisture in the skin. Ceteth-60 can also improve the overall performance of other active ingredients in formulations, making them more effective.

Application Scenarios

Ceteth-60 is widely used in various personal care products, including lotions, creams, and serums. It is particularly beneficial in formulations designed for hydration and nourishment. The ingredient is also effective in hair care products, providing moisture and improving manageability. Its versatility allows it to be included in both oil-based and water-based formulations, making it a popular choice among formulators seeking stability and texture in their products.
