Ceteareth-20

Ceteareth-20 is an odourless emulsifying agent and surfactant derived from the glycol ether of cetearyl alcohol. Compatible with both natural and synthetic oils, it is widely used in skin and hair care formulations including creams, lotions, shampoos, conditioners, and serums.

As a versatile emulsifier, Ceteareth-20 helps combine water and oil-based ingredients, stabilising the formulation and improving product texture. It also acts as a thickening agent, enhancing the consistency and increasing the shelf life of personal care products.

Additionally, Ceteareth-20 functions as a penetration enhancer, allowing active ingredients to absorb deeper into the skin for improved efficacy. Its stability and multifunctionality make it an essential ingredient for cosmetic and personal care manufacturers.
