Behenyl betaine contains Behenyl betaine (1-docosanol) as an alcoholic ingredient.
Behenyl betaines are organic compounds (amphoteric surfactants) that have both positive and negative charges in their molecular structure; therefore they are not loaded externally.
Behenyl betaine are called wash-active substances and are of great importance for skin and hair cleansing in cosmetics.
Behenyl betaine (from Latin "tensus" = tense) are substances that can reduce the surface tension of a liquid due to their molecular structure.
In this way, Behenyl betaine is possible to finely mix two essentially immiscible liquids, such as oil and water.
Because of their properties, surfactants are used in cosmetics in various ways: They can clean, create foam, and also act as emulsifiers and mix substances with each other.
In shampoos, shower gels and soaps, surfactants, for example, are used to wash away grease and dirt particles from the body with water.
Behenyl betaine are also used in toothpastes.
Behenyl betaine used in cosmetic products are mainly produced synthetically on the basis of herbal raw materials.
Surfactants are often used in combination to meet all the desired requirements, such as dirt removal and foam formation, as well as good skin tolerance, in the best possible way.
Thus, considered alone, it has unfavorable skin tolerance, but has very good soil-dissolving properties, has good cleansing properties and is equally good skin compatibility, thanks to an ingenious combination of a very gentle, skin-friendly surfactant and a surfactant. a product is obtained.
Behenyl betaine (also docosanoic acid) is a carboxylic acid, the saturated fatty acid with formula C21H43COOH.
In appearance, it consists of white to cream color crystals or powder with a melting point of 80 °C and boiling point of 306 °C.
Behenyl betaine is a synthetic or plant-derived thickener and emulsifier used in cosmetics.
Behenyl betaine is considered a fatty alcohol and is not related to sensitizing forms of alcohol.
Behenyl betaine is a fatty alcohol in skin care and cosmetic products that helps to soften the skin and improve the texture and consistency of the formulation.
Behenyl betaines four main uses are as an opacifying ingredient, thickener, emollient and emulsifier.
Behenyl betaine, also known as docosanol, is a 22 carbon saturated fatty alcohol.
Behenyl betaines are a group of ingredients that are often misunderstood, mostly because of their names.
Despite having alcohol in their name, fatty alcohols actually help condition and condition the skin and hair effectively.
Behenyl betaine are high molecular weight, straight chain primary alcohols derived from natural fats and oils.
Behenyl betaine is derived from plant sources such as corn, but can also be produced synthetically.
Behenyl betaine is mainly used in face moisturizers and body lotions, but can also be found in deodorants, lipsticks, foundations, and hair care products.
Behenyl betaine is a plant-based emulsifier and thickening agent.
Behenyl betaine is considered a fatty alcohol, by far the best type of alcohol for skin care and cosmetics.
Behenyl betaine is because it acts as both an emulsifier and an emollient, but more on that below.
As an emulsifier, Behenyl betaine holds together water and oils in cosmetics.
Behenyl betaine is typically made from oils in vegetable oils.
However, the great thing about fatty alcohols is that they don't dry or irritate your skin like some other alcohols.
Instead, due to the "oily" part of the molecule, they also act as an emollient.
This means they protect your skin and retain moisture in your skin.
Behenyl betaine is actually a really common ingredient, and unfortunately it can also be made synthetically.
Behenyl betaine's important to be mindful of natural Behenyl betaine in your products, but after all, it's one of the best fatty alcohols and healthy for your skin.
Behenyl betaine is a natural fatty alcohol in the form of a white, waxy solid.
Also known as docosanol
Behenyl betaine is an emulsifier that also prevents the oil and liquid parts of a solution from separating.
Other functions of Behenyl betaine include changing the thickness of a liquid, increasing its foaming capacity and stabilizing foams.
When Behenyl betaine is applied to the skin, it gives the skin a smooth feel and helps prevent moisture loss.
Many products contain this ingredient for its unique sensory properties and non-greasy feeling after application.
Behenyl betaine is mainly used in face/body lotions and creams, but can also be found in deodorants, lipsticks, and foundations.
Behenyl betaine is a saturated fatty alcohol of vegetable origin used to regulate viscosity in formulations.
Behenyl betaine acts as a thickener and stabilizer and can be used as a co-emulsifier.
Behenyl betaine can be used in water-in-oil emulsions, oil-in-water emulsions, and non-aqueous formulations such as ointments, body oils, and peels.
Behenyl betaine produces elegant emulsions and leaves skin feeling soft, velvety.
Behenyl betaine is a white, waxy pellet and acts as a thickener, binding agent, solvent and gelling agent.
