Ceteareth 6 Stearyl Alcohol Emulsifier for Creams CAS NO 68439 49 6 OILREE® MY96 (ceteareth-6 or stearyl alcohol) is a white waxy non-ionic emulsified matrix, specially used to make a stable and smooth oil-in-water system, which can keep the product stable in viscosity for a long time and is also resistant to electrolytes.Its fatty alcohol skeleton can play a role in conditioning the skin, and the polyethoxy chain can improve the emulsification efficiency and form a uniform layered structure, so that the formula can maintain good texture and stability at different pH values.This ingredient can make the product feel milder on the skin, reduce the dryness that is common in systems with high surfactant content, and make the emulsion better to push away and absorb.It is acid, alkali, and electrolyte resistant, and can be used stably in demanding formulas. It is also compatible with modern polymer thickeners such as Sodium acetate. The recommended amount is 1-5%, and the packaging is 20 kg/barrel.
Core features of ceteareth-6 or stearyl alcohol
1.Nonionic emulsification system
MY96 is a stable oil-in-water emulsification system, which can make the finished formula stable in viscosity and delicate and uniform in appearance.
2.Conditioned waxy structure
Fatty alcohol ingredients can form a soft and non-greasy conditioning film on the surface of the skin, which is in line with the known effects of stearyl alcohol as a barrier protection and non-irritating ingredient.
3.Strong stability under harsh conditions
It can play stably in systems containing electrolytes, acids, and alkalis, or when the temperature fluctuates.This characteristic is suitable for formulas that require long-term viscosity and stable storage.
4. Texture and skin feel upgrade
It can create a rich and dense texture, and at the same time it is easy to apply and absorb quickly.Its structural characteristics make the product smooth and not heavy, whether it is a facial or body care product, the experience is better.
5. Wide compatibility with active ingredients and oils
It can be well integrated with esters, natural oils, silicone oils, moisturizers, and polymer thickeners.This versatility allows it to be used not only for basic daily care lotions, but also for efficacy-based systems, and the formula design is more flexible.
6.Recommended application scenarios
Suitable for use in creams, lotions, sunscreens, conditioners, cleansers and other products, these products need reliable emulsifying effect and a delicate final texture suitable for different skin types.
7. Use and storage recommendations
The recommended addition amount is 1-5%, and both hot and cold processing techniques are applicable.Store in a cool and dry place when storing to maintain the integrity of the wax and facilitate subsequent processing.
