Chlorinated Paraffin
Chlorinated paraffins are complex mixtures of polychlorinated n-alkanes produced by reacting chlorine gas with unbranched paraffin fractions derived from petroleum distillation. They appear as colorless or yellowish viscous liquids or solids depending on chain length and chlorine content. Chlorinated paraffins are classified based on carbon chain length into short-chain, medium-chain, and long-chain varieties. Technical grade chlorinated paraffins are manufactured for industrial applications including plasticizers, flame retardants, metalworking additives, and surface coatings. They exhibit excellent compatibility with polymers, high thermal stability, water resistance, and chemical resistance.
Light White Mineral Oil Tech Grade
Light White Mineral Oil Tech Grade is a highly refined, colorless, odorless, and tasteless petroleum-derived oil. It is characterized by its low viscosity and excellent lubricating properties. This technical-grade mineral oil undergoes stringent purification processes to remove impurities, making it suitable for various industrial, cosmetic, pharmaceutical, and food-related applications. Its chemical stability, non-reactivity, and safety profile make it a versatile ingredient and lubricant in many manufacturing and processing sectors.
Micro crystalline Wax
Polyglyceryl
Polyglyceryl refers to a family of non-ionic surfactants and emulsifiers made by the polymerization of glycerol units. Depending on the number of glycerol units (e.g., Polyglyceryl-2, -3, -6, -10) and fatty acid esterification (e.g., laurate, oleate, stearate), they offer different emulsifying and solubilizing properties. These compounds are biodegradable, mild, and skin-friendly, making them ideal for use in cosmetics, food, pharmaceuticals, and personal care products. Polyglyceryl esters are often chosen in natural and organic product formulations due to their origin and non-toxic profile.
Sodium Aliginate
Sodium Aliginate is a natural polysaccharide extracted from brown seaweed. It appears as a white to yellowish powder that is odorless and tasteless. It is highly soluble in cold water, forming viscous solutions and gels. Sodium alginate is widely used in the food, pharmaceutical, textile, and cosmetic industries due to its excellent thickening, gelling, stabilizing, and film-forming properties. It acts as a natural hydrocolloid and is valued for its biocompatibility and biodegradability.
Sodium Lauryl Ether Sulphate
Sodium Lauryl Ether Sulphate (SLES) is a versatile anionic surfactant commonly used in personal care, household, and industrial cleaning products. It is a clear to slightly yellow viscous liquid or powder derived from ethoxylated lauryl alcohol and sulfuric acid, neutralized with sodium hydroxide. SLES is valued for its excellent foaming, cleansing, and emulsifying properties. It is biodegradable and widely accepted for use in cosmetic and cleaning formulations, providing mildness and effective removal of dirt and oils.
Veegum
Veegum is a purified magnesium aluminum silicate clay known for its excellent suspending, thickening, and stabilizing properties. It is widely used in pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and industrial applications as a rheology modifier, suspension stabilizer, and emulsifier. Veegum enhances the texture, consistency, and stability of formulations, providing improved performance in both liquid and semi-solid systems.
Vitamin A Palmitate
Vitamin A Palmitate is a highly concentrated, stable ester form of vitamin A used extensively in pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals, cosmetics, and food fortification. This fat-soluble vitamin supports vision, immune function, skin health, and cellular growth. The palmitate ester enhances stability and shelf life, making it ideal for incorporation into powders, capsules, and topical formulations requiring precise dosing.
