Cosmetic Grade Polyhydroxystearic Acid Liquid CAS NO 27924 99 8
Polyhydroxystearic acid is a high-performance plant-based dispersant widely used in various cosmetic and personal care formulations. This yellow liquid not only has excellent powder dispersing ability, but also has secondary emulsifying properties, making it highly valuable in various formulations, including slurry grinding, sunscreen, and base makeup products.
In addition to its main function as a dispersant, polyhydroxystearic acid can also be used as a multifunctional ingredient in the cosmetic raw material category. It helps moisturize the skin and provides a mild and non-irritating skin feel. The product is biodegradable and comes from sustainable sources, suitable for clean beauty formulations. The product is packaged in 20 kg barrels and the recommended addition level is 1% to 5%, depending on the formulation requirements and target effects.
Performance
Polyhydroxystearic acid has good compatibility with cosmetic chemicals and can maintain stable dispersion performance even in high-concentration pigment systems without affecting the original texture of the product. It has good thermal stability and its dispersion effect remains unchanged under high-temperature processing conditions, ensuring the reliability of the production process.
Role in cosmetics
It can enhance the adhesion of cosmetics to the skin, making foundation, sunscreen and other products less likely to come off or melt due to sweat, thus extending the effective time of the products. At the same time, it can also improve the smoothness of the product during application, reducing dryness and powder flying.
