E 435

DESCRIPTION:

E 435 is a synthetic compound produced from ethylene oxide (a synthetic compound), sorbitol (E420) and stearic acid (a natural fatty acid).
E 435 is the essential ingredient for making body and room sprays. 
E 435 acts as a solubiliser, allowing the oil phase of your formula to disperse and fully incorporate into the water phase. 

 

CAS NUMBER: 9005-64-5

MOLECULAR FORMULA: C58H114O26

 

DEFINITION:

E 435 is a solubilizer commonly used to bind fragrance and essential oils with water based products.
E 435 is derived from coconut oil. 
E 435 is a non-toxic, nonionic surfactant/emulsifier and a water-soluble yellowish liquid used as a dispersing agent which allows oil and water to mix without the use of alcohol. 
E 435 is a fragrance solubilizer and stabilizer.
E 435 lubricates and has a soothing effect on the skin. 

E 435 is used extensively in oil-in-water emulsions (lotions, conditioners, cream rinses, shampoos, liquid soaps, body polishes or scrubs, etc.) and also for body mists and linen sprays. 
E 435 is generally used in combination with other emulsifiers such as mono- and diglycerides or sorbitan monostearates for various purposes such as to disperse flavors and colors, to make essential oils and vitamins soluble and to improve volume and texture in baked goods. 
E 435 is a highly hydrophilic surfactant and approved as a food additives. 
E 435 is a usuful emulsifier, dispersant and solubilizer for aroma chemiclas and oils.

E 435 is a nonionic, solubilizer, o/w emulsifier, antistat and fiber lubricant used in textile industry, wetting agent, viscosity modifier, suspending agent used in food, cosmetics, drugs, textile and metal working industries, solubilizer for perfumes and flavours, insecticides, herbicides, paints and inks, pharmaceuticals.
E 435 is a polysorbate-type nonionic surfactant formed by the ethoxylation of sorbitan before the addition of lauric acid. 
E 435's stability and relative nontoxicity allows it to be used as a detergent and emulsifier in a number of domestic, scientific, and pharmacological applications. 
As the name implies the ethoxylation process leaves the molecule with 20 repeat units of polyethylene glycol; in practice these are distributed across 4 different chains, leading to a commercial product containing a range of chemical species.

E 435 is a harmless sorbitol, which is a sugar alcohol. 
For its use in personal care products, however, E 435's treated with ethylene oxide. 
The result is an ingredient used as an emulsifier in cosmetic creams, lotions, cream deodorant, baby oil, sun lotion, etc. 
E 435 is used to help mix oil and water.
E 435 is stable to electrolytes and weak acids and bases; gradual saponification occurs with strong acids and bases.
The oleic esters are sensitive to oxidation. 

E 435 is hygroscopic and should be examined for water content prior to use and dried if necessary.
E 435 is a lauric acid with an approximate hydrophilic-lipophilic balance of 16.7.
E 435 can be used as a solubilizing agent in oil-in-water emulsifications as well as a humectant in skin care products. 
E 435 is frequently used as an indirect additive for food emulsification.

 

USES:

E 435 is used by philatelists to remove stamps from envelopes and to remove residues from stamps, without harming the stamp itself.
E 435 is also used as wetting agent in rubber balers in the elastomer industry.
E 435 has been used as a shape directing agent to synthesize spheroidal magnetite nanoassemblies.
E 435 has a broad range of applications. 
E 435 is used as an excipient in pharmaceutical applications to stabilize emulsions and suspensio
