OILREE®MY918 CETEARYL ALCOHOL/CETEARYL GLUCOSIDE CAS NO.67762-27-0/246159-33-1
OILREE®MY918 is an oil in water
Emulsifier of plant origin, the INCI name is
CETEARYL ALCOHOL/CETEARYL GLUCOSIDE,which is a White to yellowish grains product, based on cetearyl alcohol and cetearyl glucoside.It can form a liquid crystal emulsion, keep the cream and emulsion stable, and does not contain essential oil ingredients.
Cetearyl alcohol/cetearyl glucoside is a two-component mixture: 80-90% cetearyl alcohol and 10-20% cetearyl glucoside.Glucosides play an emulsifying role, fatty alcohol imparts consistency to the oil phase, and helps the emulsion form a liquid crystal structure.
Both ingredients are derived from plants.The mixture is self-emulsifying, so there is no need to add other major emulsifiers to build a stable oil-in-water emulsion, and it still performs well when used with emollient raw materials such as
Bis diglyceryl polyacyladipate 2.
Main advantages
- Plant origin, does not contain essential oils.The mixture does not contain ethylene oxide , so it is suitable for formulas that are phasing out ethoxylated emulsifiers.
- Low irritation.The substance does not irritate the eyes or skin, and there is no evidence that it can cause skin allergies.Therefore, it is suitable for eye creams, baby products, and Makeup moisturizer for sensitive or allergic skin.
- It belongs to a nonionic emulsifying system and has good compatibility with other types of surfactants.
- Liquid crystal structure.The emulsion forms a liquid crystal network, which makes the cream stable in texture, light and non-greasy.
- Suitable for most oils and fats.There is no need to consider the polarity or molecular weight of the oil phase.
- Biodegradable.It is easy to decompose in the environment and conforms to the concept of environmental protection of the product.
How to use
The dosage of OILREE®MY918 is 1-5% of the formula.It is suitable for oil-in-water systems, such as face creams and body creams, eye creams, baby care products, high SPF sunscreens, and sensitive skin products.
