POLYSORBATE 20 Emulsifier: Key in Materials of Cosmetics

2025,08,25
Now we are in an era of vigorous development of the "value economy”. Everyone no longer only looks at the surface when buying things, but pays more attention to the quality and actual value of products. The cosmetics industry has also taken advantage of this momentum to develop rapidly. More and more people are beginning to pay attention to beauty and skin care, and the foundation that supports the entire cosmetics industry-the cosmetic raw material industry, has also received more and more attention and attention.
 
Mingya New Material Technology Co., Ltd launched Oil in water emulsion-OILREE® MY T20 (polysorbate 20, CAS number: 9005-64-5), with its outstanding performance, has become a popular choice in the field of cosmetics and personal care, and has been favored by many formulators and brands.
 
Many people may not know much about polysorbate 20. In fact, from the chemical structure point of view, its full name is polyoxyethylene (20) dehydrated sorbitol monolaurate, and there is also a more familiar common name called Tween-20. 20.One of its most critical indicators, the HLB value, has reached 16.7, which determines that it can efficiently build an oil-in-water system in the formula.In simple terms, it can blend the oil phase and the water phase in cosmetics together, and there will be no separation of oil and water. It can not only give the product a delicate and smooth texture, but also keep the entire formula stable. No matter whether it is stored or used, it will not easily deteriorate, layering and other problems.
 
The core advantages of this polysorbate 20 are particularly prominent. The first is that its chemical properties are very stable, not as delicate as some emulsifiers, and it has a certain tolerance to strong acid and alkali environments. Even if it encounters higher temperatures in the production process, it will not decompose easily, and it can adapt well to the conventional production process of cosmetics.Moreover, it is not easy to dissociate in water, and its stability is full, which is one of the important reasons why it can be widely used.
 
In addition, it is also a mild surfactant with very low irritation. This is particularly important in the current cosmetics industry-now everyone pursues gentle skin care, especially for sensitive skin. There are more and more people, and the requirements for the gentleness of raw materials are also getting higher and higher.MY T20 just fits this demand and can be widely adapted to the formula system of various cosmetics and personal care products, whether it is daily lotions, creams, toners, cleansing products, conditioners, or even liquid foundations and makeup remover products in makeup, it can be used, and it is highly adaptable.
 
But having said that, no matter how good the raw materials are, there are also things to pay attention to when using them, and MY T20 is no exception.The first is the issue of the amount of addition. Although it is mild, if it is added in excess, it may still cause slight irritation to the skin and eyes. Therefore, whether it is a brand or a manufacturer, it must strictly follow the addition standards stipulated by the industry when using it, and the dosage cannot be increased at will in order to pursue the effect. It is necessary to ensure product performance and take into account the safety of use.
 
Another point that needs special attention is that MY T20 is harmful to aquatic organisms, which requires us to do a good job in wastewater treatment in both production and use.For example, the wastewater generated in the production process cannot be directly discharged. It must be professionally treated and then discharged after meeting the discharge standards to avoid pollution to the environment of rivers, lakes and other water bodies. This is also an important manifestation of corporate social responsibility. Mingya New Materials has always strictly required itself in this regard and adhered to the bottom line of environmental protection.
 
It is precisely because Mingya has precise technical control over this MY T20, and can strictly control product quality to ensure that each batch of raw materials is stable and reliable, so as to accurately meet the current market needs of the cosmetics industry, and has won the recognition and trust of many customers.
 
Looking to the future, Mingya Company has not stopped. Instead, it plans to continuously optimize production processes, continuously improve product quality and performance, and strive to reduce production costs. It aims to provide the cosmetics and personal care industry with higher-quality and more cost-effective raw material support, help the entire industry develop in a healthier and more sustainable direction, and also bring consumers a safer and more comfortable beauty and skin care experience.
