Product Application of Ethylene Glycol Distearate CAS#627-83-8
EGDS is a very important additive in the cosmetics and toiletries industry, and is widely used in shampoo , body wash, bath lotion, facial cleanser, moisturizing cream, and high-end liquid detergents, among others. When it is mixed with other surfactants and heated to dissolve, during the process of cooling and condensation, it will precipitate out lens-shaped crystals. These fine thin layers, by reflecting light, can produce a stable and intense pearl luster in the product.
It can also effectively increase the viscosity of liquid detergent products, while having the functions of moisturizing the skin, nourishing hair and hair, and anti-static.
In addition, it can also be used as a pearl dispersion agent, solubilizer, lubricant in pharmaceutical production, as well as in metal processing detergents and fiber processing fields.
