Rich in vitamins (especially A, C, and E), enzymes, and amino acids, Aloe Vera Gel is commonly applied to treat sunburns, minor cuts, skin irritation, and dryness. It also has mild anti-inflammatory and antibacterial effects, making it a popular natural remedy in both cosmetic and medicinal products.
Ammonium Lactate
Ammonium Lactate is the ammonium salt of lactic acid, appearing as a clear, hygroscopic liquid or syrupy solution. It is widely used in pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and food industries primarily for its moisturizing, pH adjusting, and antimicrobial properties. In topical formulations, it acts as a keratolytic agent to help exfoliate and hydrate skin, making it popular in treatments for dry, scaly, or ichthyotic skin conditions. Its biocompatibility and mild acidic nature make it a versatile ingredient in various industrial and personal care products.
Glycerin
$ 1.20
Glycerin, also known as glycerol, is a colorless, odorless, viscous liquid with a sweet taste and hygroscopic properties. It is a trihydroxy alcohol (triol) used extensively across food, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and industrial applications. Food-grade glycerin is produced through hydrolysis, saponification, or transesterification of fats and oils, ensuring compliance with stringent purity standards. It is supplied in bulk (e.g., 250kg drums) for large-scale applications where non-toxic, biodegradable humectants or solvents are required. Glycerin is widely appreciated for its moisture-retaining ability, solubility, lubricity, and stabilizing properties.
Hexane
Hexane is a colorless, volatile, and highly flammable hydrocarbon solvent belonging to the alkane series with the chemical formula C6H14. It is a mixture of isomers, primarily n-hexane, with a faint gasoline-like odor. Hexane is widely used as an industrial solvent due to its non-polar characteristics, low boiling point, and excellent ability to dissolve oils, fats, waxes, and resins. It is commonly obtained from petroleum refining and is a key component in formulations requiring rapid evaporation and strong solvency. Hexane finds broad applications in chemical synthesis, extraction, cleaning, and manufacturing sectors.
Polyethyl Glycol( PEG 6000)
Polyethyl Glycol( PEG 6000) is a high-molecular-weight polymer derived from ethylene oxide. It appears as a white, waxy solid or flake and is non-toxic, water-soluble, and chemically stable. PEG 6000 is widely used in pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, food processing, industrial formulations, and biotechnology, valued for its lubricating, solubilizing, binding, and moisturizing properties. It is odorless and tasteless, making it suitable for sensitive formulations.
Sorbitol
Sorbitol is a sugar alcohol with the chemical formula C₆H₁₄O₆, appearing as a white, crystalline, hygroscopic powder or syrup.
