Usage

General Description

OLETH-10 is a member of the polyethylene glycol ether family, specifically an ethoxylated derivative of oleyl alcohol. It is commonly used as an emulsifying agent in various cosmetics and personal care products, such as shampoos, conditioners, and lotions. OLETH-10 helps to blend and stabilize oil and water-based ingredients, creating smooth and consistent textures in these products. It also functions as a surfactant, helping to enhance the spreadability and consistency of formulations, while also serving as a mild cleansing agent. OLETH-10 is generally considered to be safe for use in cosmetics and personal care products when formulated within recommended concentration limits. However, some individuals with sensitive skin may experience irritation or allergic reactions to this ingredient.
