Potassium Cetyl Phosphate-CAS 19035-79-1
Potassium Cetyl Phosphate is a high-efficiency mild cosmetic functional auxiliary with a bionic phospholipid molecular structure, specially developed for high-end gentle skincare formulas. Different from traditional chemical emulsifiers with strong irritation, it has skin-friendly properties similar to natural human phospholipids, with extremely low skin irritation and mild performance.
This product integrates emulsification, thickening and stabilization in one formula: it can efficiently emulsify oil-water phases to avoid formula delamination and water-oil separation; it has unique ointment thickening effect, which can quickly increase the viscosity of cream and lotion products, form a fine and stable paste structure, and endow cosmetics with smooth and delicate texture.
It adapts to the weak acidic pH environment of human skin, with a wide applicable pH range, no restriction on acidic and neutral formulas. It can effectively improve the ductility and spreadability of skincare products, reduce greasy feeling, form a breathable moisturizing film on the skin surface, lock moisture and soothe dry and sensitive skin. With stable batch performance, no peculiar smell, strong system compatibility and no adverse reaction with other cosmetic raw materials, it is a core essential raw material for baby skincare, sensitive skin care and high-end mild emulsion cream products.
Key Benefits
• Bionic Phospholipid Structure, Ultra-Mild & Low Irritation: Simulates human natural phospholipid components, skin-friendly and non-irritating, far milder than traditional emulsifiers, safe for sensitive skin, pregnant women and infant skincare formulas.
• Dual Functions of Emulsification & Thickening: No need for additional thickeners, it integrates efficient oil-water emulsification and ointment shaping thickening, simplifies formula system, reduces raw material types and lowers production costs.
• Wide pH Adaptability & Strong System Stability: Stably applicable in pH 4.0-9.0 environment, adapts to weak acidic skin formula and most cosmetic systems, effectively prevent product delamination, water precipitation and viscosity attenuation during storage.
• Fine Texture & Superior Skin Feeling: The prepared cream is delicate, silky and non-greasy, with good ductility and fitting property, no powdery residue or sticky feeling, greatly improving the grade and use experience of finished skincare products.
• Moisturizing & Soothing, Repair Skin Barrier: Can form a breathable protective moisturizing film on the skin surface, lock skin moisture, relieve dryness, tightness and sensitivity, assist in repairing fragile skin barrier.
• High Compatibility & Easy Industrial Processing: Good compatibility with surfactants, moisturizers, plant extracts and other cosmetic raw materials, simple formula debugging, stable batch performance, suitable for mass industrial production.
