Chem/IUPAC Name: C16-18 alcohols, ethoxylated, phosphates (2 mol EO average molar ratio)
APPLICATIONS
Ceteareth-2 is classified as Cleansing agent.
Ceteareth-2 is classified as Surfactant.
Ceteareth-2 is used in moisturizer products.
In facial moisturizer/treatment products of cosmetics, Ceteareth-2 is included.
Ceteareth-2 is liquid to waxy solid.
In cosmetics and personal care products, Ceteareth-2 is used in skin care products, moisturizers, hair conditioners, suntan and indoor tanning products and hair dyes, colors, and tints.
Ceteareth-2 helps to form emulsions by reducing the surface tension of the substances to be emulsified.
Ceteareth-2 is also used to decrease the thickness of liquid cosmetics and personal care products.
Ceteareth-2 is an Emulsifying agent.
Also, Ceteareth-2 promotes the formation of intimate mixtures between immiscible liquids by modifying the interfacial tension (water and oil).
Ceteareth-2 is Surfactant.
Moreover, Ceteareth-2 reduces the surface tension of cosmetics and contributes to the even distribution of the product during use.
Ceteareth-2 is used as emulsifiers, solubalizers in cosmetics & health care formulations.
Ceteareth-2 is a Complex mixture of esters of phosphoric acid and Ceteareth-2 uses and applications include: Surfactant, cleansing agent in cosmetics; emulsifier, stabilizer for emulsions.
Ceteareth-2 is used in cosmetic industry.
Additionally, Ceteareth-2 functions as Surfactant, Emulsifier, Acid, Stabilizer.
Ceteareth-2 functions in skincare and cosmetics as a/an emulsifying, cleansing surfactant ingredient.
DESCRIPTION
Ceteareth-2 is classified as Cleansing agent.
Ceteareth-2 is classified as Surfactant.
In cosmetics and personal care products, Ceteareth-2 is used in skin care products, moisturizers, hair conditioners, suntan and indoor tanning products and hair dyes, colors, and tints.
Universal emulsifier to make o/w emulsions, compatible with all kinds of oils & active ingredients, very effective protective colloid that stabilizes all kinds of dispersed systems, can be combined with other emulsifiers, optimal use with gel-forming thickeners.
Keep Ceteareth-2 to container tightly closed.
Store Ceteareth-2 in dry, cool place, and protect from moisture.
Ceteareths are made from cetearyl alcohol, which is a mixture of cetyl and stearyl alcohol, and ethylene oxide.
The numerical value represents the average number of molecules of ethylene oxide added to generate the specific Ceteareth ingredient.
For example, Ceteareth-2 is made by reacting Cetearyl Alcohol with an average of 2 molecules of ethylene oxide.
The INCI names ceteareth-n (where n is a number) refer to polyoxyethylene ethers of a mixture of high molecular mass saturated fatty alcohols, mainly cetyl alcohol (m = 15) and stearyl alcohol (m = 17).
The number n indicates the average number of ethylene oxide residues in the polyoxyethylene chain.
These compounds are non-ionic surfactants that work by attracting both water and oil at the same time, frequently used as emulsifiers in soaps and cosmetics.
"Ceteareth-" refers to a PEG (polyethylene glycol) ether of cetearyl alcohol.
The number after "ceteareth-" indicates the average number of molecular units -CH2-CH2-O-.
Ceteareth-2 is safe for use in cosmetic products.
There are no restrictions on the use of Ceteareth-2 in cosmetic products.
