Product Introduction
PEG-82 Glyceryl Tallowate is an emulsifying agent commonly used in the cosmetic industry. Its unique chemical structure allows it to effectively blend oil and water, ensuring product stability and enhancing texture. It is especially valued in formulations where a creamy consistency is desired. This ingredient finds applications in various personal care products including creams, lotions, and hair care formulations.
Production Process
The production of PEG-82 Glyceryl Tallowate involves the esterification process of glycerin and tallow fatty acids with polyethylene glycol. This reaction is carefully controlled to create a product with the desired molecular weight and fatty acid profile. The resulting compound exhibits both hydrophilic and lipophilic properties, making it an effective emulsifier for a range of cosmetic and personal care formulations.
Efficacy and Function
As an emulsifier, PEG-82 Glyceryl Tallowate serves to stabilize formulations by promoting the uniform distribution of oils and waters.
