Science
Mechanism of Action
Functioning as an emulsifier, TALLOWETH-5 lowers the interfacial tension between immiscible liquids, forming stable emulsions crucial for uniform product consistency. As a surfactant, it decreases the surface tension of a formulation, which facilitates even distribution and enhanced spreadability upon application to the skin.
