2-Octyl-1-dodecanol Usage
This product is used as an emulsifier and lubricant in cosmetics.
Emollients in cosmetics and skincare: High-performance emollients used in a variety of lotions, creams, sunscreens, lipsticks, and color cosmetics. They soften and smooth the skin, preventing moisture loss. They provide a silky, non-greasy feel and help improve product spreadability and spreading.
- Solvents and dispersants: Cosolvents and carriers for oil-soluble active ingredients (such as sunscreens and vitamins), helping them disperse evenly in the formula and penetrate the skin.
- Conditioning agents: Used in hair care products to make hair soft and manageable.
- Emulsion stabilizers: Co-emulsifiers or thickeners that help stabilize water-oil emulsions.
Specialty Industrial Additive: Applied in textile lubricants, metalworking fluids, advanced leather fatliquors, and industrial defoamer formulations, as well as an internal lubricant processing aid for plastics.
