SODIUM C12-13 PARETH-8 CARBOXYLATE.

Insufficient Data CAS 68908-98-5 / CLEANSING, SURFACTANT - CLEANSING, SURFACTANT - EMULSIFYING

SODIUM C12-13 PARETH-8 CARBOXYLATE functions as a versatile ingredient in skincare, primarily acting as a cleansing agent, emulsifier, and surfactant. It expertly reduces surface tension, allowing for the effective blending of immiscible substances such as oils and water, crucial for product stability and skin purification.

Summary

Cleansing Emulsifying Surfactant

Science

Mechanism of Action

This ingredient reduces the surface tension of liquids, facilitating the fine dispersion and mixing of substances that typically repel each other, like oil and water. This surfactant property is pivotal for its cleansing action, enabling the removal of fat and soil particles from the skin, and for stabilizing cosmetic emulsions to maintain product integrity and consistency.
