Ceteareth 20 Ginonic CSA 20
Ceteareth 20 Ginonic CSA 20 is a nonionic surfactant and emulsifier derived from the ethoxylation of cetearyl alcohol, incorporating approximately 20 ethylene oxide units per molecule. It appears as a white to off-white waxy solid or viscous liquid, depending on temperature and formulation. This emulsifier is widely used in cosmetic, pharmaceutical, and industrial formulations for its excellent ability to stabilize oil-in-water emulsions, improve texture, and enhance the sensory properties of finished products. Its high hydrophilic-lipophilic balance (HLB) makes it especially effective in forming stable emulsions and solubilizing lipophilic ingredients in aqueous phases. Ceteareth 20 is valued for its mildness, broad compatibility, and multifunctional performance.
Ceto Stearyl Alcohol
Ceto Stearyl Alcohol 1618TA is a high-quality fatty alcohol blend primarily composed of cetyl (C16) and stearyl (C18) alcohols. It appears as a white, waxy solid or flakes with a mild fatty odor. This blend is widely used as an emollient, thickener, and co-emulsifier in cosmetic, pharmaceutical, and industrial formulations. Ceto Stearyl Alcohol 1618TA offers excellent lubricity, thickening, and stabilizing properties, enhancing the texture, consistency, and moisturizing characteristics of creams, lotions, and hair care products.
