What is a suspended pearlescent agent?
I don't know if everyone has ever had such an experience: when you pick up a bottle of shampoo and pour it in the palm of your hand, you can always see the fine and soft pearlescent texture. It shakes in the sun, and the delicate luster instantly makes people feel that this bottle of toiletries must be unusual.In fact, it is the suspended pearlescent agent that creates this good-looking and extra texture.It is like an invisible makeup artist in toiletries and skin care products. It is unassuming but can quietly enhance the appearance value and experience of the product. The appearance rate in our daily lives is much higher than imagined.
Suspended pearlescent agents are essentially a class of additives that can give products a pearl-like luster. They can not only enhance the appearance and texture, but also bring a certain consistency adjustment and stabilize the system. The applicable scenarios cover many daily chemical products that we come into contact with daily.The most common are shampoo and shower gel. Whether it is a cheap model or a high-end model, it is possible to add such ingredients. The purpose is to make the original transparent or pure white liquid have an extra layer of soft pearlescent light, which is more ritual when used. After taking a shower, you can still see faint traces of luster on the inner wall of the bottle remaining in the bathroom.In addition to care products, skin care products such as body lotion and hand cream are also used, especially some body creams that focus on moisturizing and shiny muscles. After adding a small amount of suspended pearlescent agent, applying it to the skin can reflect the natural luster, making the skin more delicate and translucent, but it will not be as exaggerated as high gloss, and daily use will not be abrupt.
In addition, suspended pearlescent agents can also be seen in some high-end liquid detergents, hand sanitizers, and even some makeup base makeup products.After the liquid detergent is added, it breaks the monotonous transparent or white appearance of traditional detergents, making housework a bit more delicate.The amount of makeup added to the base makeup is relatively restrained, mainly to make the base makeup more shiny.The characteristics of such ingredients are also very suitable for the needs of daily chemical products. Most of them are in a solid state, easily dispersed in the aqueous phase system, have strong stability, will not lose the pearlescent effect due to temperature changes and storage time for too long, and the compatibility is also good. It can be used with most daily chemical raw materials, and will not easily produce precipitation, stratification and other problems.
By the way, the suspended pearlescent agent still hides a small surprise-it is not only responsible for the appearance, but also quietly enhances the sense of use of the product.For example, in shampoo formulas, it can help increase the consistency of the product, make the shampoo easier to bubble, and the foam will be more dense and delicate, and there will be no sticky feeling when rinsing.In the shower gel, it can make the texture of the shower gel thicker and more moisturizing. After taking a shower, the skin will not feel dry and tight. It can also help lock in a little moisture and make the skin feel smoother.This is why many people think that care products with pearlescent feel better when used. In fact, suspended pearlescent agents are silently playing a role.
What is the core raw material of suspended pearlescent agent?
Having said that, I have to mention one of the core raw materials of suspended pearlescent agent-OILREE® MY3874 (INCI name:
Glycol distearate), which is also a very commonly used pearlescent agent raw material on the market.Friends who have been in contact with daily chemical raw materials may be no stranger to it. After all, this product has appeared in various raw material procurement lists many times, and its popularity can be seen.
Let's talk about its appearance first. It is a very regular white sheet. It looks clean and pure. There are no excess impurities. This form is very convenient for storage and use.For example, when manufacturers produce shampoo, they do not need complex pretreatment. As long as it is added in proportion, it can be evenly dispersed in the formula system, and there will be no agglomeration or clumping, which saves a lot of processing trouble.Moreover, its melting point range is very stable, it can dissolve smoothly under the temperature conditions of daily production, and its compatibility with other surfactants is also particularly good. Whether it is used with cleansing ingredients or moisturizing ingredients, it can coexist peacefully and will not affect the overall stability of the product.
The outstanding advantage of MY3874 is its pearlescent effect.Customers who have used it have reported that it can bring a very strong and uniform pearlescent texture, unlike some pearlescent agents, the luster is flickering, or it can only show a faint luster.After adding its shampoo and shower gel, you can see the obvious pearl luster when you pour it out, and this luster is very soft and will not appear pompous, which just pokes the consumer's demand for high-end sense.What's more rare is that its pearlescent effect is very durable. After the product is opened for more than half a year, the luster will not weaken. When stored, there is no need to worry about losing the pearlescent texture due to changes in light and temperature. This is too important for the shelf life and use experience of the product.
As a high-quality cosmetic raw material, the safety of MY3874 is also reassuring.It is an ester product, which is safe and non-toxic. As long as it is used in accordance with the regulations, it will not cause harm to the human body.Moreover, after professional testing, its acid value, color and other indicators are well controlled, and it will not bring additional odor or color pollution to the product, nor will it cause irritation to the skin.However, it should be noted that although it is very mild, if it accidentally comes into contact with the eyes, it will still be slightly irritating, so during production operations, the staff remember to wear protective glasses and gloves to avoid direct contact.
In addition, the scope of application of MY3874 is also very wide. In addition to common shampoos and shower gels, it can also be used in hand sanitizers, moisturizers, high-end liquid detergents and other products, and even in the field of metal processing detergents and fiber processing. It can also play a role.Its recommended dosage is between 0.5%-5%. Manufacturers can flexibly adjust according to the needs of the product: if you want a faint pearlescent effect, add a little less, and if you want a more obvious and rich pearlescent texture, increase the dosage appropriately. It is very flexible to operate and does not need to be subject to too many restrictions.
Another thing that is very favored by manufacturers is its practicality-it can not only bring pearlescent effect, but also assist in increasing the viscosity of the product.Many daily chemical products require a certain consistency, which can not only enhance the sense of use, but also make the product look thicker. MY3874 can just meet this demand.Adding an appropriate amount of it to the formula, without adding too much thickener, can make the product achieve the ideal consistency, which not only saves the cost of raw materials, but also avoids the problems of product stickiness and unclean flushing caused by too much thickener. It is simply killing two birds with one stone.Moreover, the packaging of MY3874 is also very intimate, using a specification of 20kg/bag, whether it is a small batch trial production or a large batch production, it can be flexibly matched.The packaging has good sealing, which can effectively prevent the product from moisture and deterioration, and it is also very convenient to store. As long as it is placed in a cool, ventilated and dry warehouse, avoiding high temperature and direct sunlight, it can be stable for a long time.
It is worth mentioning that MY3874 is also a very environmentally friendly raw material. It is biodegradable and will not cause long-term pollution to the environment.Now consumers pay more and more attention to the environmental protection attributes of products, and daily chemical products that use such environmentally friendly raw materials can also be more popular in the market.Moreover, it is not a flammable and explosive product, and there are no special hazard requirements during transportation. Whether it is land transportation, rail transportation or inland river transportation, it can be delivered safely, greatly reducing logistics costs and risks.
In practical applications, MY3874 can also be used with many common daily chemical raw materials. For example, with
Emollients, it can improve the moisture content of the product, and with
Moisturizing Agent, it can make the moisturizing effect of the product longer lasting, so that the product can enhance the core user experience.
In fact, high-quality raw materials like MY3874 are the key to improving the quality of daily chemical products.When consumers choose care products, they may only pay attention to the pearlescent texture and use experience, but they cannot do without the support of these high-quality raw materials.A good suspension pearlescent agent must not only bring a good-looking luster, but also be safe, stable and practical, and MY3874 just did it.
In general, although suspended pearlescent agent is only an additive in daily chemical products, its effect is not small. It not only enhances the appearance of the product, but also optimizes the use experience, making our daily lives more refined and ritual. Sense.If you are also looking for a reliable suspension pearlescent agent, you may wish to try OILREE® MY3874, maybe it will surprise you!
