Ceteareth-25

Ceteareth-25 is a polyethylene glycol (PEG) derivative of cetyl alcohol, widely used as an emulsifier and surfactant in cosmetic and personal care products. This non-ionic ingredient helps to effectively blend oil and water phases, enhancing the stability and texture of emulsions. It is commonly used in formulations for its ability to improve product consistency, promote smooth application, and enhance overall product performance.

Key Benefits

✔ Effective emulsifier, facilitating the stable combination of oil and water
✔ Enhances the smooth texture and feel of the product
✔ Improves the spreadability of creams, lotions, and other emulsions
✔ Acts as a mild surfactant with gentle cleansing and foaming properties
✔ Increases the stability and shelf life of formulations

How to Use

• Incorporate into the oil phase of emulsions or blend with the water phase during emulsification.
• Recommended usage: 0.5-5%, depending on the formulation and emulsification requirements.
• For external use only.

Applications

Ideal for creams, lotions, shampoos, conditioners, body washes, and facial cleansers, particularly in formulations requiring stable emulsions and smooth textures.
