STEARETH-10

The Steareth ingredients (Steareth-2, Steareth-4, Steareth-6, Steareth-7, Steareth-10, Steareth-11, Steareth-13, Steareth-15, Steareth-20) are polyethylene glycol ethers of stearci acid. 
They are waxy compounds. 
In cosmetics and personal care products, Steareth-10 are used in the formulation of personal cleanliness products and deodorants, as well as suntan, fragrance, skin, eye and hair products.

Stearyl alcohol ethoxylated with 10 moles of ethylene oxide emulsifying and lubricating substance.
Steareth-10 is a co-emulsifier oil-in-water, typically combined with Arlatone 983. 
Steareth-10 is used in skin care, hair care, toiletries and decorative cosmetics.
Steareth-10; Stearyl Alcohol, Polyethyleneglycol Ether (on average 10 units of -CH2-CH2-O-)
Steareth-10 is the polyethylene glycol ether of stearyl alcohol with an average of 10 repeating units of ethylene glycol. 
Steareth-10 is an emulsifier useful in oil-in-water emulsions that can be combined with other surfactants to achieve any required HLB. 
Steareth-10 is useful in a wide range of personal care products and cosmetics and is compatible with all types of oils and actives. 
Since Steareth-10 is a completely saturated solid material, it is very stable and has an HLB of about 11.5-13.5. 
Steareth-10 acts as a non-ionic emulsifying wax. 
Steareth-10 used in skin care creams, lotions, sun care, baby creams, lotions, depilatories, antiperspirants/ deodorants and color cosmetics. 
Steareth-10 is also applicable for hair conditioners, hair styling, eye care, feet, hands, nails, hair bleaches, chemical relaxers/straighteners and hair colorants.

Uses
Steareth-10 is safe for use in cosmetic products. 
The conducted research shows that Steareth-10 is a safe substance for use in cosmetics, however, at a concentration above 60%, Steareth-10 may be irritating to the skin and eyes, however, in cosmetic products Steareth-10 is used in much lower concentrations.

The washing substance removes impurities from the surface of the hair and skin. 
The washing process removes fatty substances, therefore re-greasing substances are used that rebuild the lipid barrier.

O/W emulsifier, an ingredient that enables the formation of an emulsion. 
Steareth-10 is a physicochemical form that is created by combining (mixing) the water phase with the oil phase. 
Examples of cosmetic emulsions are creams, lotions, balms. 
A substance that stabilizes the foam and improves the quality of the foam in a mixture with anionic surfactants. 
Steareth-10 acts as a rheology modifier (i.e. it improves the consistency causing an increase in viscosity) in washing preparations containing anionic surfactants, thanks to the formation of the so called.

Steareth-10 is non-ionic surfactant. 
A moderately hydrophilic substance, not completely soluble in water. 
Sensitive to changes in pH - at low pH Steareth-10 is stable, at high it disintegrates. 
Steareth-10 is obtained by the reaction of ethylene oxide and stearyl alcohol. 
The number assigned to a given compound indicates the amount of ethylene oxide units (mol) in the substance, so Steareth-10 is stearyl alcohol to which ten ethylene oxide units are attached. 
The greater the number of moles of ethylene oxide in a molecule of a substance, the greater Steareth-10's hydrophilicity, and thus its solubility in water.
