Cetearyl Alcohol Usage
Cetearyl Alcohol, also known as Cetostearyl Alcohol, is a versatile, non-ionic fatty alcohol blend (primarily C16-C18 chains) widely used in personal care, cosmetics, and pharmaceutical formulations. As a multifunctional ingredient, it serves as a surfactant, emulsifier, emollient, thickener, and opacifier, contributing to product stability, texture, and sensory appeal. It is non-irritating, non-comedogenic, and compliant with global regulations (e.g., CIR safe as used, EU Annex II). Below is a detailed overview of its key applications, mechanisms, and recommended usage levels (based on ≥98% purity white powder grade from Haihang Industry).
