The typical use level is 2 – 5% in creams and lotions.
HallStar® GMS SE
HallStar® GMS SE is the reaction product of Glycerin and triple-pressed grade Stearic Acid combined with a defined amount of Potassium Stearate to enhance self-emulsification in aqueous systems. It is used as the primary emulsifier in oil-in-water (O/W) emulsions at pHs in the range of 5 – 9. Typical use levels are 3 – 7%.
HallStar® Octyl Isononanoate
HallStar® Octyl Isononanoate is the reaction product of isononanoic acid and 2-ethylhexyl alcohol. It is used as an emollient and resin plasticizer. It has a low freeze point and low viscosity that reduce the tackiness of heavier emollients, enhancing skin feel.
HallStar® OP
HallStar® OP is a multifunctional synthetically produced ester of 2-ethylhexanol and palmitic acid. It is a cost effective, non-oily, non-occlusive emollient with a rich velvety feel. HallStar® OP is broadly utilized in personal care product formulations.
HallStar® PEG 400 DS MB
HallStar® PEG 400 DS is an ester made from the reaction of triple pressed stearic acid and polyethylene glycol. An emulsifier and emollient, it is commonly used in underarm antiperspirant stick products to aid removability from skin when showering or bathing and from clothing when laundered.
HallStar® PEG 600 DL
HallStar® PEG 600 DL is the esterification product from the reaction of coco-derived fatty acids and polyethylene glycol. It is used as an emulsifier (HLB 11.7) and emollient.
HallStar® PEG 6000 DS
HallStar® PEG 6000 DS is a 100% active polyethylene glycol distearate ester used to thicken aqueous mild surfactant systems.
HallStar® PEG 6000 DS C
HallStar® PEG 6000 DS C is a stearate ester of polyethylene glycol used to thicken aqueous mild surfactant systems. It is particularly suited to systems where clarity is a must.
HallStar® SAB-2N Flake
HallStar® SAB-2N Flake is a vegetable-derived emulsifier and suspending agent for difficult to emulsify and suspend materials. It contributes opacity as well as desirable rheological properties to formulations.
HallStar® TA-1618 Cetearyl Alcohol
HallStar® TA-1618 Cetearyl Alc is a fatty alcohol derived entirely from vegetable (coconut and/or palm kernel, supplemented with palm oil stearine) feedstocks. It is used as a emulsion bodifier, stabilizer and thickener, as an opacifier in various systems and as a component of creme rinse hair conditioners.
HallTress® DIBA Special
HallTress® DIBA Special is a multifunctional synthetically produced diester of Isobutyl Alcohol and Adipic Acid. It is non-occlusive non-oily is mildly drying and has fast spreading action and good solvent properties. It has applications as a plasticizer for hair fixatives and nail polishes and enamels and as a hydro-alcoholic coupler for colognes and toielt waters. It is also useful as a sunscreen solvent.
RTD HC-40
RTD HC-40 is a high HLB (~13) surfactant produced through the ethoxylation of hydrogenated Ricinus Communis (Castor) Seed Oil. It is widely utilized as a solubilizer, emulsifier and skin conditioning agent. As a nonionic emulsifier and solubilizer, it is compatible with nonionic, cationic and anionic surfactants and is effective even in systems that are relatively salty, acidic or alkaline. RTD HC-40 is an excellent solubilizer for perfume oils and may also be used as a co-emulsifier in the formulation of creams and lotions.
RTD IS-20
RTD IS-20 is a high HLB (~14) nonionic surfactant produced through the ethoxylation of Isostearyl Alcohol. It is a soft whitish paste that is used to solubilize fragrances, essential oils, and other hydrophobic compounds in aqueous systems. Used in aerosol products, it generates foam in conjunction with the propellant. With other surfactants, it also acts as a co-emulsifier.
