Whatsapp Order

Lanolin PEG SOLAN E, commercially known as SOLAN E, is a water-soluble, ethoxylated derivative of lanolin. It is a clear to pale yellow, viscous liquid with excellent moisturizing and emulsifying properties. This ingredient combines the emollient benefits of natural lanolin with enhanced solubility in water, making it highly suitable for use in modern cosmetic, personal care, and pharmaceutical formulations. Lanolin PEG-7 acts as a skin-conditioning agent, moisturizer, and surfactant, facilitating improved spreadability and absorption of products.
