Product Introduction
PEG-78 Glyceryl Cocoate is a non-ionic emulsifier that combines the properties of glycerin and polyethylene glycol. It is designed to enhance the stability and texture of cosmetic formulations while providing moisturizing benefits. This ingredient effectively blends oil and water phases, which helps in creating stable emulsions. As a skin conditioning agent, it improves the feel and moisture content of the skin.
Production Process
The production of PEG-78 Glyceryl Cocoate involves the esterification of glycerin with coconut acid followed by ethoxylation with ethylene oxide. The process is carefully controlled to ensure the desired molecular weight and properties are achieved. Purification methods are applied to remove any unreacted materials, resulting in a high-quality product suitable for cosmetic applications.
Efficacy and Function
PEG-78 Glyceryl Cocoate functions primarily as an emulsifier, allowing for the stable combination of water and oil in various formulations. It helps in enhancing the texture of creams and lotions, providing a smooth application while moisturizing the skin. Additionally, it has been shown to maintain product stability over time, contributing to the overall effectiveness of cosmetic products.
