Products in Dish Care: Fatty Acid Esters

Libratex DOS 60PG is a clear/slightly hazy, viscous pale-yellow liquid formulation containing 60% di-octylsulphosuccinate in water or MPG. This anionic product is known for its compatibility with other anionic and nonionic surfactants. Libratex DOS 60PG is commonly used in oil and solvent emulsification, often in conjunction with non-ionic surfactants, to achieve enhanced high-temperature stability, making it an ideal choice for various applications.

Crodamol™ OS is an emollient ester derived from stearic acid, a natural fatty acid. It is known chemically as Ethylhexyl stearate. With its excellent emolliency, this product is widely utilized in tissue and hygiene applications. Crodamol™ OS is available in Asia, Europe, Latin America, and North America. It is a colorless liquid, offering effective solubilizing properties. The product meets sustainability criteria, with a majority bio-based content (95-50%).

Crodamol™ AB is an ester of benzoic acid and C12-15 alcohols that is a colorless liquid. It is a solubilizer and wetting agent with applications in automatic and hand dishwashing, industrial and institutional cleaning, insect repellency, tissue coatings, waxes, and polishes.

Mosselman Sorbitan Tristearate (26658-19-5) are non-ionic emulsifiers obtained by the esterification of dehydrated sorbitol with fatty acids. These esters are mostly water in oil emulsifiers, but they can also act as oil in water emulsifiers when they are used in combination with the ethoxylated sorbitanesters.

Mosselman PEG 600 Monooleate N (9004-96-0) Polyethyleneglycol esters are the products obtained by the esterification of polyethyleneglycols with natural fatty acids. Depending the molecular weight of the polyethyleneglycol used and the mono- and diesters content, non-ionic esters with different HLB values are obtained. Polyethyleneglycol esters are mainly used as emulsifiers for oil in water emulsions. They find also application in cosmetics, lubricants, textiles, pesticides etc.

Crodamol™ GTCC is a fully saturated triglyceride with excellent emolliency and manufactured via the RSPO's Mass Balance System. Crodamol™ GTCC is entirely derived from vegetable resources and offers a sustainable alternative to petroleum-based mineral oil in a range of applications.

Crodamol™ CAP is a specially formulated blend of high-quality branched-chain monoesters that offers several beneficial properties in various applications. This blend provides a fine, dry emollience, making it a versatile ingredient for different product formulations. One of the key features of Crodamol™ CAP is its ability to form water-repellent films. This property is particularly valuable in applications where a protective barrier is desired, such as in skin care or surface care products. The water-repellent films created by Crodamol™ CAP help to minimize moisture loss from the skin or surfaces, contributing to improved hydration and protection. Additionally, Crodamol™ CAP is effective in reducing stickiness in emulsion systems.

Mosselman Sorbitan Monolaurate (1338-39-2) are non-ionic emulsifiers obtained by the esterification of dehydrated sorbitol with fatty acids. These esters are mostly water in oil emulsifiers, but they can also act as oil in water emulsifiers when they are used in combination with the ethoxylated sorbitan esters. Sorbitan esters are used in cosmetics, lubricants, textiles etc.

Crodamol™ IPP is a premium ester that has been specially formulated for use in personal care and pharmaceutical applications. This clear and colorless liquid offers a range of benefits and features that make it suitable for various product formulations. One notable characteristic of Crodamol™ IPP is its low cloud point/melting point, which is approximately 12ºC. Crodamol™ IPP finds wide application in the personal care industry.
