DESCRIPTION
Oleth-10 is the name given in the INCI system (International Nomenclature of Cosmetic Ingredients) for oleic alcohol ethoxylated with 10 moles of ethylene oxide.
Oleth-10 is is a hydrophilic compound classified as a surfactant and O/W (oil-in-water) emulsifier.
Oleth-10 is a synthetic polymer composed of oleyl alcohol and PEG (polyethylene glycol).
Due to the presence of PEG, Oleth-10 is is may contain potentially toxic manufacturing impurities such as 1,4-dioxane.
Oleth-10 is A useful ingredient that helps water and oil to mix nicely together (emulsifier).
Also, Oleth-10 is has a liquide-pasty texture and is recommended for skincare, haircare and shaving products.
Oleth-10 is Non-irritating fatty alcohol that functions as a texture enhancer and cleansing agent.
Widely Oleth-10 is used as an emulsifier in water + oil cosmetics.
Oleth-10 is Cleanses skin and hair by helping water mix with oil and dirt to be whisked away.
Oleth-10 is a form of non-irritating fatty alcohol that functions as a texture enhancer and cleansing agent.
Also, Oleth-10 is widely used as an emulsifier in water + oil cosmetics.
In general, oleth ingredients clean skin by helping water mix with oil and dirt so they can be whisked away.
Oleth-10 can also be used in shampoos.
In 2012, the Cosmetic Ingredient Review Expert Panel concluded that Oleth-10 is safe as when formulated to be nonirritating (their report looked at products containing amounts of 14% and lower).
Oleth-10 is one of many Oleths, an ingredient comprised of the polyethylene glycol ethers of oleyl alcohol in which the number in the name is the average number of ethylene oxide units.
Moreover, Oleth-10, and all of the Oleth ingredients, are versatile compounds used to clean skin and hair by helping water to mix with oil and dirt so that they can be rinsed away.
They also help to form emulsions by reducing the surface tension of formulas and help ingredients to dissolve in liquids in which they would not normally dissolve.
Oleth-10 belongs to the family of Oleth compounds consisting of polyethylene glycol and oleic alcohol ethers, where the number in the name is the average number of ethylene oxide moieties.
The solubility of oleth compounds in water increases in proportion to the ethylene oxide content.

CAS number of the Oleth-10 is 9004-98-2.
Oleth-10 is liquid pasty at room temperature and shows good water solubility.
Most often Oleth-10 is of natural origin, which translates into the biodegradability of products containing Oleth-10.
However, Oleth-10 is also possible to obtain this substance from animal and synthetic sources.
One of the most important properties of Oleth-10 is its ability to change the dissolution properties of some water-insoluble components without the support of Oleth-10.

SAFETY
Oleth-10 is not classified as dangerous according to current standards.
The safety of use of products containing Oleth-10 has been determined by CIR (Cosmetic Ingredient Review) experts.
Oleth-10 is not a toxic substance and does not cause allergies.
Oleth-10 May cause mild eye and skin irritation under direct contact.
Possible side effects of products containing Oleth-10 are related to the risk of the presence of a well-known toxin: 1,4-dioxane, which is a byproduct of ethoxylation.
With proper concentration and careful control, the production of cosmetics containing Oleth-10 is completely safe.
On the other hand, the presence of the toxin increases the penetration of other ingredients in cosmetic products, which only adds to the efficacy while maintaining concentration regulation.
