WATER SOLUBLE ESTER
Pro-aqua ISL (Isosteareth-200 Linoleate) is the sister product to our popular Protachem ISL (Isostearyl Linoleate) which is proven to deliver long-term moisturization to skin. Due to the highly lipophilic nature of Protachem ISL this effect was excluded from use in surfactant based hair and skin care formulations.

With Pro-aqua ISL, you can now incorporate PEG-200 Isostearyl Linoleate into these formulations, producing crystal clear shampoos, styling gels and pump sprays with enhanced shine and manageability and body washes, hand washes and gelled after sun conditioners with exceptional skin feel and moisturization benefits, without worrying about solubilizing the conditioning agents.

Sorbitan Esters

These are generally soluble in oils or organic solvents and dispersable or insoluble in water. They act as low HLB emulsifiers and thickners useful in emulsions.
When combined with the Polyethylene Sorbitan Esters, they form stable emulsions.
They find use in cleansing products (cold creams, cleansing lotions, etc.) make-up, foundations, sunscreen products, lipsticks and emulsion products.

Amphoterics

The Proterics and are mild nonionic surfactants often used in place of the alkanolamides. They are used in baby cleansing products as well as other frequent use
personal care cleansing products where low irritation is important.
When used in combination with other surfactants, they build viscosity, boost and stabilize foam and have skin and hair conditioning properties.

Polyethylene Glycol Esters

The Protamate series offer a wide range of HLB values making them useful as primary and auxiliary nonionic surfactants.
Besides their emulsification properties, the lower molecular weight PEG esters are effective pigment wetters in make-up products and solubilizers for fragrance in various personal care products.
The higher molecular weight PEG esters act as viscosity boosters, opacifying agents and skin and hair conditioners for shampoos, cream rinses, lotions and creams.
An important characteristic of PEG esters is that they are neither eye nor skin irritants and safe for use in baby products.

Lanolin and Lanolin Products

Lanolin is a naturally derived product useful as an emollient, hair and skin conditioning agent and emulsifier.
When reacted with ethylene and propylene oxides in various ratios, the resultant products have increased water solubility and perform as non-ionic surfactants.
In water-based systems, especially cleansing prioducts, they are substantive and leave behind an elegant feel. When lanolin is reacted with acetic anhydride,
the product no longer behaves as an emulsifier and becomes a hydrophobic emollient having excellent water-resistant properties.
