Capryleth-6 carboxylic acid types in general already improves the rinsing of the emulsion from the metal surface.
As part of a (metal) cleaner it will also support the soil dispersing.
Capryleth-6 carboxylic acid types are usually combined with EO-PO based non-ionics.
The hydrotropic properties of Capryleth-6 carboxylic acid 1 will help to make a stable formulation in acid , alkaline and/or high electrolyte circumstances.
Capryleth-6 carboxylic acid 1 has a short alkyl chain (C8) and moderate degree of ethoxylation; very good acid stability, good alkaline and electrolyte stability.
Capryleth-6 Carboxylic acids are called wash-active ingredients and are of great importance in cosmetics for skin and hair cleansing.
Capryleth-6 Carboxylic acids (from Latin "tensus" = tense) are substances that can reduce the surface tension of a liquid due to their molecular structure.
In this way, it 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.
Capryleth-6 Carboxylic acids are also used in toothpastes.
Capryleth-6 Carboxylic acids used in cosmetic products are mainly produced synthetically on the basis of herbal raw materials.
Capryleth-6 Carboxylic acids are often used in combination to meet all the desired requirements, such as dirt removal and foam formation, as well as good skin compatibility, in the best possible way.
Thus, on its own, Capryleth-6 Carboxylic acids is a product with unfavorable skin tolerance, but with very good soil-dissolving properties, good cleansing properties and equally good skin compatibility, thanks to an ingenious combination of a very gentle, skin-friendly surfactant and a surfactant. product is obtained. .
Capryleth-6 Carboxylic acids are often used as excipients in cosmetics.
They make it possible to form components that are essentially immiscible, such as oil and water, into a permanent emulsion.
In cosmetic products, both aqueous and oily care and active ingredients can be used in a single product.
Capryleth-6 Carboxylic acids can do this because their molecules consist of an oil-loving (lipophilic) and a water-loving (hydrophilic) part.
Capryleth-6 Carboxylic acids allows you to reduce the interfacial tension that actually exists between two incompatible substances such as oil and water.
Capryleth-6 Carboxylic acids are mainly used for creams, lotions and cleaning agents.
But meanwhile, Capryleth-6 Carboxylic acids are much more than just auxiliaries that keep an emulsion stable.
