Applications

• ZETEMOL color HERO is the new dispersing agent, especially recommended for color cosmetic applications. It shows extremely high dispersing performance towards inorganic metal oxides, such as iron and zinc oxides, and titanium dioxide.
• ZETEMOL color HERO improves the stability of the dispersion, avoiding pigment agglomeration over time.
• It shows medium absorption and medium spreadability so, it can be combined with the most of emollients, in order to achieve the desired texture and sensoriality of the final cosmetic preparation.
• The high wetting properties of ZETEMOL color HERO also versus ZnO and TiO₂ used in sun care applications, makes it a potential candidate for sun care products developed with physical absorbers.
