Kostol TBP is a high HLB emulsifier based on a blend of high molecular weight compounds. Formulators will find a light to medium break and some viscosity building.

Organic Emulsifying Wax is a blend of certified organic raw materials that produce emulsions over a wide range of concentrations acting as the primary or secondary emulsifier.

Kostol STMC has been designed to produce thick, creamy, radiant white emulsions with excellent spreadability and deposition to skin and hair. It is especially recommended for use in systems where a sulfate free claim is needed. It is ideal for use in sulfate-free conditioning shampoo, and sulfate-free conditioners. Kostol STMC adds a brighter sheen to emulsions and conditioners. Kostol STMC is proven to reduce frizz and static in hair as well as reduces wet and dry combing friction.

Koster Keunen has created this unique emulsifying carnauba wax that allows for simplification in formulating emulsions. The high molecular weight monoester added to the carnauba eliminates the stabilization issues of straight carnauba in an emulsion.

Permulgin D is a non-ionic emulsifier that has been developed for difficult systems. This emulsifier will impart outstanding stability to a finished product. Permulgin D is highly stable in a wide pH range. This standard emulsifier is manufactured in the USA by Koster Keunen.

Kostol BAQ is a new emulsifying wax that is a blend of high molecular weight fatty alcohols possessing strong emulsifying properties when combined with Quats and Beheneth-5. Only three percent (3-4%) of Kostol BAQ in water produces emulsions with creamy consistency.

Kostol IBT-50 is a highly concentrated cationic emulsifying wax. Kostol IBT-50 works at low usage levels producing ideal hair conditioning properties. Our Kostol IBT-50 has been deodorized to have a very low odor which will reduce a formulations requirement for high loading of fragrances. Kostol IBT-50 produces emulsions with creamy and thick consistency.

Koster Keunen has created this unique self-emulsifying wax that allows for simplification in formulating emulsions. SE Synthetic Carnauba is a blend designed for all industries where cost can be a factor. This single wax is used for thickening, film forming and some emulsifying.

Kostol IBT is an emulsifying wax based on quaternary ammonium salt. This emulsifier produces thick and creamy emulsions that feel light and hydrating on the skin with 3-5% only usage levels. By putting this emulsifier in salt form it will dissolve in water, and because it is cationic it is attracted to the hair – making it the perfect ingredient for shampoos and conditioners, as well as a host of other personal care products.
