Ceteareth 2 Waxy Emulsifier for Cream Formulations

Ceteareth 2 Waxy Emulsifier for Cream Formulations CAS NO 68439 49 6 Ceteareth-2 is a non-ionic emulsifier synthesized by ethoxylation reaction of cetearyl alcohol and stearyl alcohol, presenting as a white waxy solid. It has moderate solubility in the oil phase, good thermal stability, and can stably function within a wide pH range. It also has excellent compatibility with both ionic and non-ionic components, and is recommended to be added in an amount of 1-5%. The product packaging specification is 20kg/drum, and the sealed drum design is convenient for storage and batch retrieval, which can reduce the loss of form during transportation.   How it works In the oil in water system, Ceteareth-2 reduces interfacial tension to evenly disperse oil droplets in the aqueous phase. The hydrophilic polyethylene glycol chain interacts with the water environment, while the fatty alcohol skeleton combines with the oil to form a stable layered lotion structure. This structure can not only endow th…
